Well, I for one would be at the front of the queue to buy a copy. In fact,
if nothing comes to light by the end of the year I wonder if NIP would
finance a sabbatical for me to write one? ;-)

Seriously though, I think there's a big demand for something like this,
more so considering how fast Zope seems to have come in such a short time.
In the worst case, maybe O'Reilly would consider an extra chapter to, say,
a third edition of the excellent "Webmaster in a Nutshell"?
