[pygtk] Writing a PyGTK book

[Peter Gill]

Currently as far as I know there are no books on PyGTK.  So this
summer I decided to put some of my notes together in an attempt to
start a book.  However I am not a very good writer and my knowledge of
PyGTK is not at an expert level.  The reason I would like a book on
PyGTK and related technologies is actually a selfish one.  I wish to
have one location that I can turn to and be sure of finding an answer.
 I do not want to forget how I did something or how something worked
and not be able to remember the website I found the answers on.

I have written a few chapters so far, such as using PyGTK with
GStreamer, cairo, dbus, and embedding Mozilla or internet explorer.  I
am trying to keep the examples platform agnostic so they will work on
at least Linux and Windows.  However the main focus is on Linux
development, but if the examples can be made to work on Windows I make
sure they do.

What is currently needed are chapters that focus on PyGTK itself, such
as chapters that introduce PyGTK and more advanced chapters that focus
on particular areas. As well as lots of review and editing.

The license I plan on using is the creative commons Attribution-Share
Alike 2.5 license.

At the moment the book is in rough shape and in need of much editing.
I would like to finish this book myself but I do not have the skills
or knowledge to do this myself. So if you are willing to help with
editing and/or contributing to needed sections and chapters, please
contact me. What I already have written can be found at the link
below.
