> Sure, they could and they should, however I think TSoD might have dampened the community's efforts of improving and updating the free and more official 'Django Book' when it really needed the work.
TSoD was the effort of two individuals: they can spend their time how they like. I also can't blame them for wanting to make some money back on their time, given that writing a technical book is a non-trivial exercise.
It also takes a completely different set of skills to write a "beginner's book", which is really what the Django Book is.
