I’ve been reading the Wrox Ektron Developer’s book for a few weeks in short bursts. I find myself reading a section, then going back to Ektron development with new information to implement new ideas… Then read another section, and dashing off to solve another new idea. I wish I had the discipline to sit and read it from front to back. But each new revelation inspires me to go and do new things or refine old things. I wish I had this book 2 years ago. I need an extra copy for the bathroom!

I’m glad to hear you’re looking forward to the book. We’re incredibly proud of it and know it will help developers understand how to build a website end to end using ektron. I’m sorry to hear you’ve found the existing documentation to be frustrating — can you let me know what areas you’ve had trouble with? ektron does have a documentation team with great technical writers who are always looking for feedback on how they can improve the ektron reference manual that ships with the product. There’s a tremendous amount of information there — sometimes all it takes is being pointed to the right chapter/page. Let me know how I can help here.

Can’t wait for this book. I have a link on my website for it already. I hope it plugs the (innumerable)holes in the ektron documentation and covers advanced topics like implementing and consuming web services in Ektron sites.
