Ruby at O'Reilly Rough Cuts

Not sure if this is old news or not, but it would appear that both the
Ruby Cookbook and a Rails book are now available for purchase at
O'Reilly Rough Cuts (something akin to PragProg's beta book program):

I haven't tried them yet, but it definitely seems worth checking out.

Well, I know that the Ruby Cookbook is the one being worked on by
Leonard Richardson and Lucas Carlson. I think it's been brought up on
this list in the past.

See this URL: http://www.crummy.com/writing/Rub...

I'm not sure about the Rails book. You bring up a good point though -
I wonder why the author names aren't listed there?

Amazon.com claims that Bruce Tate and David Geary are the authors of
the Rails book. Leonard Richardson and Lucas Carlson are the authors
of the Ruby Cookbook.
