I agree.  Something that should be shown early in the book chapters is the
Halo feature, the the icons and tehe R/S buttonts, this helps a lot in
understanding the ideas underneat Seaside design.

  This is fantastic. One of the main things keeping me from selling all of
the people I work with up on Seaside was that the documentation was sparse.
This is really good.


  Thank you for putting this on the web. You'll let us know as soon as
there's a print version we can buy, right?

    After the first announcement at ESUG 2009, we are proud to present the
    release of the free online book

           Dynamic Web Development with Seaside
           http://book.seaside.st/

    The book is written in the Pier content management system using the
    Pier book publishing engine. This allows us to collaboratively edit
    the contents and generate different output formats automatically. We
    will soon offer a PDF and a printed version, but first we have to iron
    out some of the remaining issues.

    Over the past years the book got reviewed and revised several times.
    We want to thank all the persons who helped us: Torsten Bergmann,
    Damien Cassou, Tom Krisch, Philippe Marshall, Ruben Schempp, Roger
    Whitney, Julian Fitzell, and Michael Davies carefully reviewed the
    book and provided valuable feedback. Martin J. Laubach for his Sudoku
    code. Ramon Leon for letting us using his blog ideas and SandStoneDB,
    Chris Muller for Magma. Jeff Dorst provided generous financial support
    for supporting student text reading. Markus Gaelli for brainstorming
    on the book title. Samuel Morello for designing the cover.

    Michael Davies is currently helping us getting things ready for print.
    And you can help us too by writing down your findings at the bottom of
    each page. Also, if you want to contribute a missing chapter or
    support the translation of the book please get in touch with us.

    We wish to thank the European Smalltalk User Group (ESUG) and
    inceptive.be for sponsoring this book. We are looking for additional
    sponsors. If you are interested, please contact us. If you are a
    publisher and interested in publishing this material, please let us
    know.

    Please distribute this message widely.

    Cheers,
    Stef & Lukas & David & Rick
