Eldon, thanks for a well done book. I think most of the issues i’m encountering are due to version mismatch (i ‘m using Rails 2.0.2).

If you decide to dive in to the changes 2.0.2 for a 2nd version of your book… or whatever, i’d line up to buy.

Thanks

Thanks for the kind words.

I think that a revised edition of the book is a real possibility at some point in the future. I think it would be be fun to update the code and then expand some of the content to add some of the things that I wasn’t able to include in this first edition.

But it will be awhile before that happens. I’ve just started a new book ( a beginning Rails book) that will be out this fall, so I’ll have to finish that book first.

Besides I think waiting for a Rails 2.1 or 2.2 would make for a more interesting revision as we’ll most likely see some pretty major performance improvements and even more changes to Rails best practices between now and then.
