Abe, this is great to hear! Congratulations and very best of success to you and the book. I for one will be looking to buy it ASAP. P.S. - Apparently your blogging software is based on PHP rather than Twisted. :-/ From your link, I just get an error "Error establishing a database connection. This either means that the username and password information in your wp-config.php file is incorrect or we can't contact the database server at localhost."

Hi all,

I'm happy to announce that O'Reilly is going to publish my book on Twisted. It's scheduled for release in October. The working title is Twisted Network Programming Essentials.

I've been working on this book since the end of last year, but I've been waiting to announce it until I knew that it was definitely going to be published in the reasonably near future. At this point it's in the editing stage, and O'Reilly has put it on their production schedule for an October release. So spread the word - there's a Twisted book coming!

For a description of what the book covers (and what it doesn't), see this post on my weblog:

Thanks to all the Twisted developers for creating such an amazing framework. The more I learn about Twisted (and I learned a lot while writing this book), the more I'm impressed. I hope this book helps many more people to get started with Twisted, and that it's the first of many more books to come.

Abe
