NO STARCH PRESS RELEASES THE OFFICIAL GNOME 2 DEVELOPER'S GUIDE

Gnome Foundation
Gnome Foundation

An increasing number of developers worldwide are interested in GNOME, the user-friendly GUI and desktop development platform for UNIX and Linux. However, the development documentation for GNOME, while voluminous, is intimidating to a developer not wholly familiar with the GNOME development process. To help rectify this situation, No Starch Press and the GNOME Foundation announce the release of The Official GNOME 2 Developers Guide, the first English-language book about developing with GNOME 2. With this book, current and would-be GNOME developers can come up to speed with the building blocks of GNOME development: GLib, GTK, and the GNOME API's.

Just Got Mine

Finally got mine from Nexus Computer Books and I'm almost done reading the introductory chapters (1 and 2). It's great! Just what I wanted: something that introduces data type, GObject programming basics, the theories, concepts of the paradigm.

One thing I've noted, though, is there seem to be a lot of errors. I'll be posting any errors I find, but it's not clear what email address I should use to send feedback or if there's a web-based submission form. At the back of the book is the advice to check out http://www.nostarch.com/gnome.htm, but so far, I can't find anything on errata. Minor oversight, I hope.

Kudos to Matthias Warkus, Brian Ward and Michael Meeks!
