Maybe it's just an optimistic dream of mine, but so many people
offer up great books on here, and there are so many great
programmers that I would love to see a cumulation of the
knowledge in an "open source" book.  Maybe it'd work the same
way as this site does with users of certain reputation able to
make new chapters, edit/add to the chapters, submit their own
examples of code. If something is "downvoted" enough in some
way, then it will be deleted. Either that or just edited by
another user.  I don't know, just something I was thinking about
recently. What do you guys think?  share|improve this question

I thought of and said to myself "That'd be awesome" –  Justen
