Django Book Coming
The Django-neers have started to release the first (to my knowledge) Django book online at djangobook.com. From the release notes: “The book is available under the GNU Free Documentation License, which means it’s free to read and redistribute. We’re in this to improve the (already excellent) Django documentation, not to make a quick buck.”
Taken on its own, Django is an impressive framework. When you mix in the attitudes of the lead developers on the project, the whole thing gets even warm and fuzzier. Congratulations Django team. Also, good work Apress, this isn’t the first book they’ve published that’s also available for free online..see: dive into python, practical common lisp. I’m all for making a buck, but I really like companies that understand that giving away something for free doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll never make money. High fives all around.
