MPL Book is on the way!!!

I recieved notification that it shipped yesterday, and according to the UPS website, it will be here tomorrow, Dec 15!

What is the "MPL Book"? "C++ Template Metaprogramming"? Cheers, Michael On Tue, 14 Dec 2004 15:12:49 -0500, Jody Hagins <jody-boost-011304@atdesk.com> wrote:

Slightly off topic, but who did you find was best to order it through Matt? Amazon? I'm a Melbournian and - as I'm sure you're aware - technical books cost an arm and a leg in Australia. If you can find them! I went to Borders and they said they can order it in for me, but to expect "at least a six to eight week wait after it's released". Oh, and is there an Amazon link that could give Dave & Aleksey get a (admittedly small) cut? Thanks guys for writing this book! :) Cheers, Matt PS Here's the Amazon link: http://tinyurl.com/5bn5z It's listed as $30.59.

Cheers,
Sorry for annoying others, ..and sorry Matt ... it's Elizabeth Street not Swanston - almost opposite the GPO

Mine should be here tomorrow. Likely the UPS guy will also be carrying grandma's annual holiday fruitcake as well. I'm taking bets as to which will take the longest to digest ;) "Jody Hagins" <jody-boost-011304@atdesk.com> wrote in message news:20041214151249.64eba4e1.jody-boost-011304@atdesk.com...
