i have been approached quite a few times about writing a book, and that has always been in the back of my head. This is why i set up WX initally, to document best practice and provide shared knowledge.
like sven said, this would have to be discussed in different levels: beginning, intermedate, advanced.
i think there is room for a few books possibly:
- MW as Enterprise tool
- MW as CMS
- best MW practices
- and of course, Semantic Wiki
Main Questions To answer
- are these Textbooks? General?
- who is the audience (market research)
- what is already out there (I can fill this in later)
- how to supplement a printed book with online content/trainings.
- basis for Consulting/Training
- how to get paid/royalties/etc
ramifications of this: (considering everyone who contributes)....it wouldn't be fair for me just to make the dough, but it wouldn't be fair for me to do all the work to publish either....
