[ZDP] Book

[Martijn Faassen]

Hi folks,

"They" (can't give names at the moment) asked me to write a book on Zope.
I'm flattered and interested, but also somewhat worried about how this
fits in with the ZDP project (and ZBook -- what's the status there?). I 
haven't been much involved with the ZDP for a long time now, but I did
start it early on and still feel connected to it. If I'm to write this
book the ZDP would be one of my prime resources.

But, it's unclear at the moment what the relationship between me and the
ZDP would be in such a circumstance. I don't want to just take from the
ZDP, I'd also like to contribute. I'm not quite sure how to do that, though, as
this book is unlikely to be completely open content. I could work on 
ZDP documentation at the same time, but that may be duplication of
effort.

Anyway, I just don't know yet, and that's why I'm mailing this to the
list. Ideally there should be some way to make us all work smoothly
together to the advantage of all parties. So, I'm hoping you people have
ideas and opinions on this. I'd like your feedback to help me work things
out.

Regards,

Martijn
