An important part of the books and articles from the community's point of view, is which versions of the components they cover. Hopefully we can outline these here.

Opinion of HenriYandell

As a fervent buyer of technical books, especially open-source ones, I have a lot of opinions when it comes down to these books. Take the following with a grain of salt, especially as they are based on memory and personal view:

...

• Christian's: Teachers.
• Harshad's: Newbie->Intermediate Java developers.
• Tim's: Current users of Commons.
• Jonathan's: Subscription model.
• Vikram's: Intermediate->Experienced Java developers.
• Torsten's: German text.
• Will's: <to-come>

(/End of Opinion)
