We kind of finished the book in late 1999. But as it turned out, the book was never printed. There are many reasons to why it came that way, but it all boiled down to the fact that the publishing industry was (is?) not ready for content licensed under something like the Free Documentation License. So we gave up on all the fame and glory of a printed publication and settled with publishing it online. This at least made it available to a large audience and it seems we hit the nerve as we got , and still get, a good number of hits on these pages and quite some positive feedback.

The svn book is available under an open license from http://svnbook.org./ As is the latest book from Karl Fogel: "Producing Open Source Software". The book is available from http://www.producingoss.com/. both are published by oreilly. hope this helps darix -- openSUSE - SUSE Linux is my linux openSUSE is good for you www.opensuse.org
