Re: Behind the Design 2009

As a contributing-team mentor, I recently placed a bulk book order for our team members, and other outreach activities (eg: donating books to local libraries).

I was told by the publishers that the book is currently "out of stock", with no immediate indication on when/whether more will be made available.

Huh???

Hopefully this just means that they have fully committed the first print run to Amazone or someone..., or have them all allocated for Nationals.

It would be awsome if demand is already high enough to warrent an immediate reprint.

Hopefully this no NOT an example of skimping because demand was anticipated to be low...... This is a MUST HAVE for any rookie team to see what krazy ideas are out there each year.
