Wo publishes Pickaxe II?

[Michael Vondung]

Might have missed a message, but has it it been mentioned who is going
to publish the Pickaxe II book? Is it "self-published" or will it be
distributed or is Addison-Wesley going to publish it? (Just trying to
gauge how difficult it will be to get the book over here in Germany,
preferably through a bookstore.)

The "wo" in the subject line should have been "who". Dang, I should pay
attention even after a seventeen hours work day.

Dava and Andy. (see http://www.pragmaticprogrammer.com/)

I will either order it directly from Dave and Andy or will ask
"Lehmann's" http;//www.lob.de. In Hamburg they have the recent books on
CVS and unit testing on stock (well, most of the time).

TW, are we going to see a Subversion version of the CVS book?

It's published by The Pragmatic Bookshelf, and will be available both
from our website
(http://www.pragmaticprogrammer.com/bookshelf/index.html) and from your
normal retail book outlets. In Germany, we have an arrangement with
Lehmans, and we also have O'Reilly handling distribution.

In theory, it will be available anywhere you can by an O'Reilly book.


Cheers

Thank you, this is excellent news. Lehmanns is perfect, that's where I
have been getting my books from for years (not a big fan of Amazon), so,
there won't be any availability issues.

Looking forward to autumn.
