5.0 out of 5 stars Free download of the almost-complete manuscript from Manning, June 21, 2006

The publisher, Manning, is certainly a good public citizen. They assembled an excellent team of subject matter experts to write a book on Portals and Portlet development. The team wrote the book, but Manning chose not to publish it. Consequently, it hasn't gone through the usual edit/review process, but it's still an excellent resource. Manning is offering the book, in PDF form, as a free download at manning.com/hepper The manuscript was made available on October 25, 2005.

I wonder why they chose not to publish it? Insufficient demand, probably. But as someone who would likely have bought the book, a free manuscript, authored by fellow technical experts, is an excellent deal. It's a little rough, but excellent value!

Enjoy!

I'd like to thank the previous reviewer for the link information to the pdf file. It is rough and incomplete, but heck, it's free and will help me out a lot with a new 168-portlet project I have been assigned too. Thanks David.
