To get back to the topic. :-) I think it's a very very good idea to take the book as a basis for documentation in a wiki. But what is needed is the permission of J.R. and/or the publisher. With respect to J.R.s situation, we could try to contact the publisher of the book. When they say "no" it is no...but it's an answer. Perhaps they can tell us, who's responsible for granting rights and permissions.
Here is my situation...and I know, I'm not allone with this. I never coded in any OO-language. ...and I never designed a GUI-program. ...but I like Gambas so much. ...and there is either old or no documentation. For a rookie like me, at the moment coding in Gambas means: Hacking one hour and gathering the needed information eight hours. Looking into the PDF-book, searching the wiki, scanning the mailinglist archives, analyzing other people code sniplets in the internet and so on. ...it's a little bit frustrating. It would be so pity, when Gambas doesn't get the acception, it is owing. Sorry for my poor English ...it's not my native language.
