This was an interesting story. I, and several others, were asked to review this book early on, and gave feedback. But then, after some remarks, we were cut out of the loop and suddenly the book simply appeared. I have not yet looked at the finished product, but it is nice to see a book on the topic of CFEngine 3 out there, with another one coming.
