She kind off already has http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1861005474/qid=1026063847 but its one of those WROX dozen author books which I assume means Jeni only wrote a few chapters. If a full book about W3C XML Schema was written solely by Jeni it would have my recommendation [after reviewing it of course]. -----Original Message----- From: Gary Cramblitt [mailto:garycramblitt@comcast.net] Sent: Sun 7/7/2002 9:32 AM To: xmlschema-dev@w3.org Cc: Subject: Jeni, you should write a book! One of the troubles with XML Schema is the lack of good information, including solutions to real-world problems, and work- arounds to XSD's many limitations. I've been monitoring this list for a few months now and I've noted that Jeni consistently provides well thought out answers and demonstrates a deep understanding of XSD and Schematron. I went to the book store today looking for a good book and found nothing more than reworks of the specification. I wanted to take a look at Vlist's new book, but sadly the store didn't have it. Jeni, you should write a book about XSD. I suggest it follow a workbook sort of structure. You could begin each chapter with a traditional explanation of the technology, but the real value would be in the Q&A section at the end of each chapter. You could glean material right from this list; in many cases, your own answers, expanded and explained in more detail, would provide valuable useable info to your readers.
