I’ll update my progress here. I have a pretty tight schedule, but I’ve rearranged some of my commitments like graduate school to accommodate the work. (I’ll be getting credits from Georgia Tech towards my CS degree for doing this book — a nice bonus!) This is the first book I’ve written, and it’s going to require working code for examples, so there will be a lot of learning and work to do. But I’m confident this will be a step forward.

@dannotdaniel @evan This is what I want to know. I presume some kind of elephant, but that would presume a focus on Mastodon?

@evan congratulations! Agree with everything you said about O’Reilly books, they’re excellent.

Edit: if you could pick the cover animal, what would you choose? 😁

@evan That is so awesome, Evan! I've written several books, including a short one for O'Reilly, and I wish you all the best. It can be a really tough process, but it *is* awesome to see it in print! Thanks for taking this on. It will be great to have a book out helping people do more with ActivityPub.
