FYI: iText in Action - second edition

Hello,
as you probably know I'm currently writing a new book about iText.

The working title is "iText in Action - second edition", but instead of
writing a revision, I've chosen to write a new book from scratch. You
can find the new TOC here: http://1t3xt.info/tutorials/book.php

Today was the deadline for 1/3 of the manuscript. I've been working
against the clock to meet that deadline, and yes: yesterday I've
uploaded the first 6 chapters (204 pages!) of the new iText book. I'll
try to meet the next deadline on time as well: January 25.

In the meantime, the first 6 chapters will be reviewed by people like
you. Some of you will be contacted by the publisher in a couple of days.
If you'd like to review the book, but you're not invited be the end of
next week, please post a not in reply of this message. If you post
answers on a regular basis, I'll add you to the list for the 2/3 review.

For instance: I've put Alexis on the list for the 1/3 review, but I'm
saving cool mkl for the 2/3 review because that's where I'll discuss
digital signatures and stuff.

If you live in Belgium, and you want to see a sneak preview of what's in
the book, I'm giving a presentation at BeJUG next week:

best regards,
Bruno Lowagie
