I think, Apple should be highly interested in an updated edition of
"Cocoa Programming", too.
After all it is - as a supplement to Aarons book - the best way to get
an overview of all the main COCOA features, the concepts and how they
depend on each other. This is needed to get started easily and
efficiently, which is important for developer motivation - and finally
also a question of money.
Having more developers out there means more sexy programs means more
customers means more success for Apple's shareholders ;-)
I think you all *three* should really try to make a new edition
possible.
I'm not even sure why this is still being discussed.
Apple isn't being a bad guy here. I write about Cocoa every day for
work, and writing the same material over again, for Sams, isn't
appropriate. Not would it be fun or interesting.
And, the stuff that I write now you guys get for free. :-)
I produce significantly more documentation now full-time than I did
with the book.
