Thanks Stef.

I still didn't quite recover from the pain of delivering the first book, 
which took 3.5 years instead of 9 months. I doubt I'm going to do that 
again any time soon.

In any case mp2's release comes with a huge vollume of docs accessible 
from http://perl.apache.org/docs/2.0/index.html, and the missing parts are 
available from the mp1 docs. Here is the breakdown of mp2 docs size:

the user guide:   321pp
the API manpages: 487pp
the dev guide:     96pp
the win32 docs:    23pp
-----------------------
Total             927pp

So it's not like you have nothing to read :)

Funny it bypasses the size of our book by 3 pages (924pp) :)
