It is only fair that contributors and commiters can get a pay back for the
great work they do in their free time. Is it by writting a book or by
providing some consulting work.
When I use open source software I usually buy the book when it is written by
one of the contributors or commiters. And one of the reasons I buy them is
to honor the work they have done. 30U$ really is not much.

If you go over to Manning Publications they usually offer an electronic
version to a lower price bevor the hard copy is available. Also they submit
some of the core chapters for public review to www.theserverside.com like
they do currently for "JSF in Action"
(http://www.theserverside.com/resources/JSFInActionReview.jsp). Since it
will take a long time to finish the book it would be great to make some
chapters available for the public to review bevor it is finished.
