Self-Publishing Boxed Sets

Slashdot | Supporting Community Projects.  This nice Slashdot item has me thinking about how nfoWare will be published, especially since it is a candidate for book (er, documentation) plus CD-ROM publishing, and all of the code will be open-source.

The LuLu home page has more information, as does the list of available items.  Many books have a substantial discount if obtained in electronic instead of paper form.  The entire presentation is fascinating and, in particular, completely straightforward and understandable.  This is an intriguing operation.
