Last week, we rolled out Early Release #2 for my “Distributed” book-in-progress.
EarlyRelease#2 (ER#2) adds two new chapters (Ch.12 one-on-ones and reviews; Ch.14 group socials and work-weeks). There are also a bunch of tweaks and fixes to the previous Chapters 1,5,6,7,9, including grouping related chapters into three sections.
This is one month after ER#1. You can buy ER#2 by clicking here, or clicking on the thumbnail of the book cover. Anyone who already bought ER#1 should get prompted to update to ER#2. (If you don’t please let me know!). And yes, you’ll get updated when ER#3 comes out. For added goodness with an Early Release, your feedback get to help shape/scope the book!
Please let me know what you think of the book so far. Is there anything I should add/edit/change? Anything you found worked for you, as a “remotie” or person in a distributed team, which you wish you knew when you were starting? If you were going to setup a distributed team today, what would you like to know before you started?
Thank you to everyone who’s already sent me feedback/opinions/corrections – all changes that I hope make the book better. To make sure that any feedback doesn’t get lost or caught in spam filters, it’s best to email a special email address (feedback at oduinn dot com) although feedback via twitter and linkedin works also. Thanks again to everyone for their encouragement, proof-reading help and feedback so far.
Now, it’s time to brew more coffee and get back to typing. ER#3 is only a few weeks away!
John.
