Hey Kevin … I was going to Dtweet you something like “Living in Oz, working for SitePoint; gotta luv being Canadian! *grin*” but couldn’t … you aren’t following me … HeyHo.

Anyhow, you said something about “to space or not to space before version number” and I was wondering if you’re assembling a spec. I had to do one … I mean a real one … I mean a MIL-SPEC avionics R&D one … and would love to hoe in on something for this day and age.

hope to connect with you

I won't use this space to compare to other titles are expound at length - I'll save that for MY blog ;) - but I will say, if you have not read a JS title yet, this is an excellent one to start with.

This book was a pure joy to read. Excellent code, wonderful writing styles, and beautiful illustrations to boot. I especially appreciated the coverage of the libraries (and their shortcomings) and the quality of the code throughout the book. You stuck to a standard and refused to take shortcuts (such as innerHTML). I know that this is a discussion for another time, and that there may be legitimate uses - but I enjoyed the cleanliness of your code. Nice work Kevin and Cameron! @Rob
