I agree that the obstacles aren't insurmountable, and I have been working on surmounting them! I know this is an emerging technology, and that selling a book idea about a new technology is hard, but I have been talking to Keven, and we are working on something. Certainly nothing is yet at the point were we can announce anything or even where we are sure exactly what is going to happen. All of that said, I would be somewhat surprised if we didn't manage see a book out on TurboGears relatively soon. On the other hand, I expect we will see the 1.0 release even sooner than that. ;) --Mark Ramm
