Hey Maciej, Well on the book thing we cant really make one. The apis change so much it would make any book obsolete after a year or so. Like currently we are moving very soon from GTK+ 2 - 3 so it would be a little insane to write a book on either since GTK 3 isnt ready yet and 2 is going out very soon.
Since things evolve so fast in the open source world its hard to document stuff in a stable way without the risk of obsolescence. --fagan On Sat, 2010-11-13 at 20:03 +0100, Maciej Pilichowski wrote: > Hello, > > On Saturday 13 November 2010 18:25:26 Shane Fagan wrote: > > > We do know about the lack of a great Ubuntu specific IDE and > > there were a few sessions that talked about it at the last UDS. > > The issues are being looked at over the next few cycles. > > It's great to hear that. > > > On the lack of books we dont have any in shops but if you google > > Quick remark -- I am aware of google of course :-) But if you want to > be treated seriously you cannot rely on some materials spreaded out > on the internet.
