good reading for developers / project managers
Quick post while I wait for my NetBeans to re-compile using Maven2 
I had the privileged of meeting Gordon Holland a few weeks ago, super smart guy, he pointed me at the Getting Real book by 37 signals (as a developer who has tinkered with Ruby on Rails I was already aware of 37 signals their very well built web apps). But I wanted to recommend this book to anyone that knows me / has similar interests … sec compile done … app exploded 
… recompile … GAH!!!! now I understand why Steve and Craig were surprised that my NetBeans was allowing hot-changes to this JSF application, I wasn’t using my Maven2 install home in NetBeans, I was using the version that NetBeans uses with the Maven2 PlugIn (which allows hot-changes) … So now I’m reverting because its a BIG PITA factor to have to recompile while I work out the page layout of the xhtml (everytime I make a small change) … But I digress 
So, the point I believe was that you should go check out the book ” Getting Real “ from 37 Signals…
