Thanks for great offer. It is a great honour to be a tech reviewer for O'Reilly.
However, for some personal reason I can't accept your great offer.
I believe you can find better tech reviewers than me.
For erratas,
- Learning iPhone Programming: It's almost been a year. I forgot the details.
- iOS 4 Progg Cookbook: Vandad doesn't deserve any errata submission from readers. But I think anyone who have read some of Apple's document could easily find errors in the book. You said that book is for medium to advanced developers. I am just curious about how you measure the level of developers. He just made the clear cut documents hard to understand and even wrong sometimes. (Who says PROCEDURE in C world? Who on earth add frameworks to target not project? is application:didReceiveLocalNotification: method called when in background? Have you ever open anyone of the sample code projects in recent Xcode?)
Thanks, bk21. We did have compensated technical reviewers, who are themselves iPhone app developers, review Vandad's book, and Vandad addressed all the concerns he raised. We calibrate the target audience level based on the topics that are covered (beginner, intermediate, advanced).
I'll review these concerns with Vandad and also ask him to tackle the problems with the project files and get these addressed quickly.
