[buug] Fwd: New LUG Book Mailing from Pearson Education User Group Program

[Michael Paoli]

Note that there's three books they ask if we're interested in, ... let me
know if any and/or all of them are of interest to you, and I'll pass that
along.

I'm probably at least potentially interested in the:
-- Advanced AJAX: Architecture and Best Practices by Shawn Lauriat;
www.informit.com/title/0131350641
<http://www.informit.com/title/0131350641>
book.

I'll probably update them with whatever folks have expressed interest
in through the end of this week's BUUG meeting.

As I continue to be your point of contact for all things Linux and open
source, please know that I will soon place a shipment for the benefit of
your LUG to receive a review copy of our new release: openSUSE Linux
Unleashed by Michael McCallister. www.informit.com/title/067232945x

We have additional new titles which I'd be happy to include in your
shipment, but you must first write to me to confirm your group's
interest in any or all of the below:
