Hey Tom, all,

This is a great idea. I think it would help to both disseminate some deep u=
nderstanding of OODT as well as how to use it more thoroughly.

Addressing your points:
a) In-depth architectural overview, usage scenario, and configurability gui=
dance for each component of OODT. Customization/ configuration code example=
s, especially for the many extension points across the framework. Also, art=
iculation of undocumented "gotchas" that we developers know about but new u=
sers may not. Plus a little history of OODT would be fun.
b) Definitely count me in to help with the book effort.

Thanks,
Rishi
