I'd like to add something to this:

First, this book will be put on the KDE web sites.  In effect, it will
be the start of our KDE 2.0 developer documention.

If you are at all interested in writing for the KDE project, I would
suggest you look into this.  The pay, frankly, isn't very good at all
and if you were doing it purely for money, it wouldn't be worth it.
BUT, if you were going to write for KDE anyway, you might as well get
paid *something*, right? :-)
