Congratulations Dominik! It's quite an achievement both personally and for the Nim community, which will undoubtedly benefit greatly from having a current book focussed on the language. I'm very much looking forward to receiving my copy in the mail this winter and thanks for putting the effort into this. Wouldn't it be great if the book's print version coincided with the 1.0 milestone release ;-).

Does this mean that the latest electronic version has been edited at Manning?

Thanks guys! :)

Does this mean that the latest electronic version has been edited at Manning?

Nope. The latest electronic version is quite outdated now, in fact there are many corrections which I made that are still not there. I think they will update it soon, but not sure exactly when (they usually update the MEAP at least once a month).

Congratulations for all the effort put into this project. The publication of the book is a great news, not only marks a milestone for Dom who put his time and knowledge to the duty of the construction of this book, but it will serve to attract new programmers to this side of the internet with a new resource to learn, and i'm sure old players will discover good tricks about nim.

Just thought I would share the fact that Manning are currently offering a 40% discount on ebooks, including MEAPs (and therefore, I assume, the Nim book), in case anyone was thinking about picking it up before the end of November:
