Hi,
The complete "Practical mod_perl" book [1] is now available online under the terms of the CreativeCommons [2] "Attribution Share-Alike License" [3].
This is great!
Attribution: The licensor permits others to copy, distribute, display, and perform the work. In return, licensees must give the original author credit.
Share Alike: The licensor permits others to distribute derivative works only under a license identical to the one that governs the licensor's work.
So a Chinese translation is permitted I guess, yah!
Thanks to all who have purchased our book so far. You can still get the printed version from your favorite book store and it will certainly make a nice "light" XMas present (hint, hint :).
Already got a copy when it was fresh out of the press :-) but didn't have enough time reading the complete book yet - maybe one of new year resolutions is do that.
I think the important bits missing is the license RDF segments in the site and html book pages. The RDF helps the creative commons search engine[1] to index the site, the segment is something like the following:[1] http://modperlbook.org/ [2] http://creativecommons.org/ [3] http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/

p.s. I've just put things together quickly, so if you find some problems please let me know. I know the HTML is a bit broken, but it'll be fixed soon. We also need to fix the copyright notices in the HTML version of the book.
