Sorry, I didn't want to offend and I honestly never thought
anyone was making money from it, I just never understood why it
was on Amazon yet not on this website, so thanks for taking the
time to explain why the e-book is on Amazon, it makes perfect
sense now.
Perhaps an explanation such as "For your convenience, an e-book
is available at Amazon ..." next to the fixed link is a good
solution to prevent any possible misunderstandings.
No matter, I really do not want to get into this level of detail
as it's of very limited significance right now. All I was
attempting to point out was the need to move on with formalizing
a process for managing the specification, and you've clearly
acknowledged the desire to do exactly that. Once we have a better
process in place, many old recurring problems will automatically
go away.
