Last two chapters to production

Comments[1] by Dave in General

Over the weekend, I put my finishing touches on the (last) two new chapters for RSS and Atom in Action. Tomorrow they'll both be off to copy-editing, typesetting and then to the printers for publication in mid-June.

I really lucked out in the reviewer category. Thanks to Walter VonKoch of Microsoft's Windows RSS Platform team, who not only answered my questions but kindly offered to review the Windows RSS chapter. And thanks also to former co-workers Pat Chanezon and Alejandro Abdelnur, who reviewed the ROME chapter.

By the way Alejandro is back from Asia, blogging again and already coming up with cool new APIs for ROME. Checkout ROME.Mano, a pipeline framework for RSS and Atom feeds.

Go Pack!

Looks like WolfBlogs is live and my alma mater N.C. State University is blogging with Roller. I don't know the specifics of the setup, but I believe they are running on a cluster of Solaris/SPARC servers and using a pretty standard Roller configuration (i.e. Tomcat and MySQL).
