I would like to ask you to return there and post a few words about it, perhaps even click the like indicator if you liked it. Oddly enough, that site judges "most popular" by the number of "likes and reviews" so there are books with 23 likes and only 100 downloads listed in the top 10. "The Minimum You Need to Know About Java and xBaseJ" was a test for this publisher. An attempt to see just how appreciative the OpenSource community would be of well done technical work. Please don't let OpenSource become just as raped as ShareWare.
