I've submitted my Ruby book to the production department at O'Reilly.They're going to allow me to make last minute changes as the final details (mainly IO encoding issues) are implemented in Ruby 1.9, but it really is going to get printed in very early 2008. (At the risk of repeating myself, let me suggest that you pre-order it now!)
In other news, the cover (which you can see enlarged in the post below) is being modified to add another name alongside mine and Matz's. I'm keeping this a surprise for now, but I will say that the name is well-known within the Ruby community, and that I think everyone will be happy with this person's contribution to the book!

Anjan,
The reviews have been done. Thanks.
If all goes as planned, I think that Amazon will be shipping pre-orders before February.
