Alsak and I are writing Behaviour Driven Development in Ruby with RSpec for the Pragmatic Bookshelf. It''s not yet listed on the prag bookshelf site as we don''t have a definitive release date yet, but if all goes well, it should be available as a beta book before the year is out.

It''s definitely happening. We''ve enlisted a few additional contributors and the wheels are spinning faster now. As for the beta book, I don''t know if there will be on at this point. We may go straight to print. Either way, I''ll update as I know more and I''ll start blogging about progress shortly.

If this has any sway at all... I''ve bought every (ruby/rails) beta book from pragprog and manning and nearly always followed it up with a hard copy on publication. I''d like to see a beta please, please, please Tony On 29/08/2008 16:02, "David Chelimsky" <dchelimsky at gmail.com> wrote:> It''s definitely happening.

For a subject I''m interested in, and RSpec is certainly that, I usually buy the PDF + dead tree later package. I just downloaded the latest beta edition of their GIT book today. -- Rick DeNatale My blog on Ruby http://talklikeaduck.denhaven2.com/ -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

If the decision was only mine to make, you''d see a beta book. In fact, you may well see one anyway, but it is not my decision to make and it''s a decision that has not yet been made. As soon as I know something firm I''ll post about it.
