Ezra if you happen to be reading, would you be able to give a quick  
update about the status of your book. I think the beta book date  
slipped once. Will the beta book be out in Feb as the PragProg site  
says? I’m excited just to see a table of contents and know what level  
of expertise and what deployment environments you will cover.

## Thanks, Peter
