Rubyisms In Rails DRM Woes?

Posted by Jacob Harris Fri, 25 Aug 2006 23:02:00 GMT

Sorry for the silence. I was on vacation in Alaska recently, so I’ve not really been in the blogging mood. But here is a short note and plea for understanding.

Early reviews (okay, review as I’ve only had one; let me know if you’ve written one or want to do a review) of the ebook have been encouragingly favorable, but the biggest complaints I’ve gotten so far have been about the DRM. I have spoken to my publisher and she’s informed me this was a mistake that was corrected after the first day, and if you’ve been stung with a DRM-afflicted version, we will provide you with a DRM-free replacement. Furthermore, no books in the Ruby Shortcut series will have DRM.

The best way to do this would be to mail me directly and I will pass along your email address to my publisher to send you a replacement copy. My email address is harrisj @ schizopolis.net. It’s probably easier to just click that mailto link above though.

Sorry for the problems. This is a new direction for them and me, and I guess we still had a few kinks to work out. Thanks for your patience.
