Ah! Earning money with Open Source via Closed Docs ;-) Not exactly what RMS was dreaming of, but perfectly OK for me: I will buy that book ASAP. I hope You also explain all those macros that make the code so uneasy to read.
I think your talking about the usage of the preprocessor lib here. If David and Aleksey are writing a book on the MPL, they've got enough on their plate without trying to explain the pp-lib also.
The doc on the pp-lib really needs to be better. I admit I gave up trying to understand it because I really don't waste my own time anymore reading bad documentation, even though I know many people consider adequate documentation what I consider bad. I am sure there is much good functionality in the pp-lib and that many people understand it but I don't think I ever will. I really do hope the pp-lib people take it to heart that they need to provide better doc about it which explains it from the ground floor up.
