A new Autotools book

Sorry for the list spam, but I thought people on this list
might be
interested in a new book on using the GNU Autotools, called

Autotools: A Practitioner's Guide to Autoconf, Automake and
Libtool

You can find it at free software magazine
(freesoftwaremagazine.com):

http://www.freesoftwarem
agazine.com/books/autotools_a_guide_to_autoconf_automake_lib
tool

Please understand a few things about this effort:

1. This is a work in progress. I've only roughed out the
intro and
first three chapters so far.

2. I'm open to help, and I'll give lots of credit for any
useful
information provided.

3. Please don't try to avoid hurting my feelings - tell me
like it is.
I'd rather be wrong in front of you guys than look stupid to
the rest
of the world.

If we're not learning all the time, where's the fun in the
journey?

Cheers and thanks in advance--
John

No problem, but could we continue this discussion on one
list only,
say, the autoconf one, for lack of a better choice? 
Thanks.

Here's a 3-second review: please cite

and if you haven't read it, read it. 

Cheers,
