The 2nd edition was out 1989. 1st, 1980.

When my wife had our second kid (born with her on all fours in a
bathroom, with only me at her side), I remember her saying, "It's a
good thing I couldn't remember what it was like having our 1st kid!"
Now that I clearly remember, again, it's something I'd never want to
do again. Okay. So we had three. But I got 'fixed' then. :)

I can only imagine the work involved in the first two as being enough
for any two people in their lifetimes. I can easily imagine Win
telling himself, "Not again!"

The other author, Paul, is involved with SETI (one project recently
needing some last minute finances, it appears) and may have also
thought the same thing:

http://seti.harvard.edu/index.html
http://seti.harvard.edu/oseti/
http://seti.harvard.edu/oseti/allsky/

It will all happen when it happens.

Hello Jon,

for any two people in their lifetimes. I can easily imagine Win
telling himself, "Not again!"

AFAIR Win and Paul are still planning the next edition. But all attempts
to this date to pry an estimated print date out of Win have failed. That
is understandable, considering that even much less menial tasks are hard
to nail onto a timeline. Whenever my wife tried to press me for when I
am going to be finished with that dreaded tiling project I told her
"Some time in the near future".

Regards, Joerg

I knew this. Which is why I said "It will all happen when it
happens." And that's as it should be.

Win posted some questions a year or two about it (the current 2nd
edition and what might be changed for the 3rd), maybe a couple years
ago, and a lot of us gave input on it. Win and Paul can always go back
to it through google groups whenever they get around to it.

By the way, Win, eBay has "32 items found for round tuit". Happy
bidding!

Well, it better be soon or I'll have retired having worked as an EE
between 1st and 3rd editions.
