I think Joel and others are well aware of my contributions on StackOverflow, and he has thanked me for doing that on occasion. Content on StackOverflow is CCA-SA (Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike). So, as long as proper attribution is done, people are free to collect examples, posts and publish them elsewhere. See https://stackoverflow.com/help/licensing Every once in a while people tell me I should write a book. Honestly I don't see that happening unless I strangely get a lot of free time, but I think I'd spend that on music instead. I'm an awful writer (as in: it takes me forever to formulate, and I don't enjoy it), and my eye-sight is not improving, so I'll keep doing what I do, and invite others to increase value/visibility by tieing things together if they know how to! Cheers, Seth
