How about publishing by vol (consider first pub as vol I). Vol II should
cover 1.8.2 and above..

or

publishing by topic; eg, Ruby Way for the Web, or Ruby Way for the Network
Admin...

of course if you have love and the time ie..

I agree it is difficult to carry bulky books. I prefer that big books should
be bind/package in sets or vol (each set not more than 300 pages). But it
gets more expensive i guess :(  I carry w me always the nutshell book
because it is light and easy...

thanks and kind regards -botp
