There's a bit of back-story here, the gist of which is: the book initially was supposed to come out from O'Reilly and Associates, but periodically the release date would get pushed back by 3 months or so.
Then they cancelled it.
It was then picked up by Pragmatic Programmers, but they wound up cancelling it too.
In any case, Erik told me a couple of weeks ago at Erlang & Elixir Factory that he'd be looking to get it out himself online by -- or around, I forget -- summertime, so it's nice to see he did this now, even if it means I lose the betting pool (I kid).
- bogomipz 10y agoI am curious if you or anyone else knows why this book might have been cancelled by both Oreilly and Prgagmatic, given they have other Erlang/OTP titles. It seems odd. At any rate I'm glad to see it's going to have a life independently. This looks great.
