OpenBooks / News: Recent posts

Darren O'Connor sent a nice little code example,
sparking the creation of a new section of the web site, at
http://openbooks.sourceforge.net/books/wga-notes.html

The four chapters of Writing GNOME Applications released under the GFDL are now available for download at http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=10222
and are browsable online at
http://openbooks.sourceforge.net/books/wga/

Addison-Wesley agreed to let me release four chapters of my book, Writing GNOME Applications, under the GFDL license. They are currently online at http://developer.gnome.org/doc/books/WGA/ and will soon be online here at OpenBooks also.

Added four new sub-sections for the Web Site,
to hold info on Books, Authors, Publishers,
and Tools.

Over the weekend I got most of my book
'Writing GNOME Applications' converted to
DocBook. It's still a little rough, and
lacks pictures and inline formatting, but
is a good start. I'm still waiting on
the official go-ahead from Addison-Wesley
before I can put it online. Should be
any day now....

Finally got around to throwing together some simple HTML for the OpenBooks Web site (http://openbooks.sourceforge.net). Also set up four mailing lists.
