Tony Wood	Friday 08 July 2011 7:47:01 am Hi Geir, Thank you for your kind words, it was a pleasure to recall such happy memories. For the book, I think we can still remain digital. So if we produce a PDF book and then people can print if they want to. I was wondering on the method of book creation. Could we use a collaborative process for this? I am thinking a shared Google Doc. as long as you can lay out the structure and moderate. The community should be able to write it over time. If we get Google+ invites we can have evening "hang outs" where we hit a chapter together. (beer and pizza not included :) As long as we get eZ to sign it somewhere it will be great.

Robin Muilwijk	Saturday 09 July 2011 1:55:27 am Hi, I'm getting really curious to the content of those books. Was it something like a tutorial? Or maybe more? Might be an idea for everyone checking this thread to have an old version scanned in pdf?

Tony Wood	Saturday 09 July 2011 8:09:53 am Hi Robin, They were mainly tutorial and reference books. I'll see if I can dig one up at the office. We used to give them out to clients for projects. Of course there other great books too (WARNING Blatant selfish plug coming up ;-) http://www.visionwt.com/Training/eZ-Publish-Books Forgive me!

Terry Duivesteijn	Friday 22 July 2011 10:48:45 am At Contactivity, as an early eZ Publish partner, we still have one or more old books/manuals laying around. Back at the office on Monday I will see what I can do to scan those if they have any (historical) added value. -- Lead webdeveloper at Contactivity, Leiden, The Netherlands.
