My life's work
Alex Homer sent me a mail a couple
of nights ago indicating that our book that we have been writing, has finally seen
the light of day - A First Look at
ADO.NET and System.Xml V2. Since my last foray into writing was a single
chapter in an XQuery book
that disappeared into obscurity as fast as a W3C XQuery draft, I was not prepared
for the agony this entailed. The proceeds from the sale of the book will go
to "paying my wife off" and clothing my four children. Then I will blow what's left
on a good bottle of 1999 Valpolicella and some Stilton cheese. I wrote this book
to get some decent documentation into the hands of early adopters ready
for the PDC, so if you want
to express an opinion I
would like to know what can be improved about it. Expect a future even
more detailed version to emerge.
