Hi,
Any update on when the book might be available to the public?
Cheers,

No promised date for release = vaporware!

I like the first book. I found it helpful in setting up pfsense .
as with others I'm looking for updated information on the release of the new version of your book.
How is it coming and is there any light at the end of the tunnel yet. -
I got the gold membership (access to the books and monthly hangout plus config backup) I would recommend it to anyone
-
The draft copy of this book is available to be downloaded from the public! I found through my google search!
-
Hello,
I hope that's not the unpublished pre-copy found only on the gold support site!

ASGH,
Can you give me a URL to download? -
Really? You're asking about that on the pfSense forum! ???
Have you any idea the effort that Chris and Jim put into the book?

Seriously guys, this is an Open Source project with a group of dedicated and professional guys in ESF coordinating and nowadays doing the vast bulk of development. They deserve to be able to eat and pay the mortgage. Pay your $US99, get the subscription, get the PDF of the book, get auto config backup, get the monthly "hangout".

PM me the search terms you used and the URL that had it and we can get it taken down if it's really there. I didn't see anything in the first couple of pages that was the 2.1 draft version.

Done, I've sent you the link & searching term.

Thanks, I passed it on and we'll try to get it taken down.

Edit: replied to a now deleted post.
Ah, well that is a problem. Something I'd not considered in fact. :-\

Or,… how about just offer the book, without subscription, auto config backup, monthly "hangout", at reasonable price? They don't have to do it, of course - it's their product and business model, after all, however, at least be open with us - tell us if and (if so) approximately when.

Once it be ready/finished, they will be selling the book, same way the previous book
For now, they offer the "draft version" to the "gold subscription" customers as a "gift"
-
I was very close to buying both pfSense: The Definitive Guide and pfSense 2 CookBook but now when I read how outdated they are, I skip it and wait for the new book to be released. I would prefer to have the physical book and not a PDF so I'll just wait.

@ptt:

For now, they offer the "draft version" to the "gold subscription" customers as a "gift"Documentation describes functionality and behavior - without it, no-one except the authors know what to expect. Undocumented, pfSense is just a complex toy.
-
Documentation should follow the release….its like that everywhere else.
Things change so quickly that the book will be outdated the time its released!
