Optimizing C++
Ciao, ti volevo chiedere per favore di collegare tra loro le pagine della traduzione del libro e quelle della versione italiana utilizzando gli interwiki. È sufficiente che tu li inserisca solo su una delle due parti (it o en) poi così passo con il bot che provvederà a linkare anche la pagina dell'altra lingua. Ciao! --Ramac (talk) 17:52, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

reply: Conventions
Well since you keep a static version I thought you would also like that the works evolved in a similar fashion (there were several post with proposals about this synchronization problem, dealing with translations, can't remember where) and even if you aren't very strict on it, keeping chapters matching will be similarly hard. I still think that you should make as evident as possible what your expectations are (books not similar to articles on Wikipedia), as author (several people don't see eye to eye with me on this point, author != editor ) you have already shaped the book and provided a specific flow to it, you would only be helping fellow editors and future authors to extend it in a given direction in a coordinated way. On the other hand I don't know if you consider the book as being in a finished state or near completion (adding a PDF static version is also possible). The actual problem with the C++ Programming book TOCs arouse because of the order of the sections, the problem is mostly moot now, I was just telling you that the talk page may not be the best place state your objectives/intentions, because it's volatile nature (the post can be deleted), making clear block against any BeBold action that would unilaterally violate them is your best defense against conflicting views, but that depends on the spirit you made the post in the first place. Were you asking for compliance, simply stating you wishes or opening a debate on the issue. I read it as the first. Preface and the Subject:C++ are ok, take a look on the C++ Programming structure, the editors  TOC and specific guidelines we created for the book. --Panic (talk) 19:41, 2 June 2008 (UTC) I also noticed that you started elaborating on some book conventions that was what I was leading to. Talk posts can be easily disregarded or overlooked. With a cleared structure you and the "book community" can reach a better understating on the needs and priorities... --Panic (talk) 19:32, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

Optimizing C++/Print Version
I have created a printable version for your book, which contains the text of all chapters (and some special formatting) on a single webpage for printing. The book is 43 pages long this way. If you create a nice cover page for the book, I will also try to create a PDF version for you. --Whiteknight (Page) (Talk) 13:50, 13 June 2008 (UTC)


 * I like that image, and I've taken the liberty of creating a title page for the book. To see the print version in all it's glory, go to this link and select "Print Preview" in your browser. Now the book is registering in at 82 pages, so I must have calculated wrong yesterday. I have a little bit more detail work to do on the print version, and then I'll create a nice PDF for you. --Whiteknight (Page) (Talk) 14:59, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

Saylor.org's C++ Programming
Hey there, I was looking at your C++ textbook and it looks great. Right now I'm working with the Saylor Foundation to create a textbook that we can host and use in our C++ course on our website (which we offer for free to anybody online). We would love for you to check out Saylor.org's C++ Programming and give us some feedback or make some contributions! --Azin (discuss • contribs) 17:22, 6 June 2012 (UTC)
