[ubuntu-us-mn] Fwd: Books and News from the O'Reilly User Group Program--July

Fri Jul 9 00:48:05 BST 2010

Of this month's new releases there's one that may be of particular interest:
 * "LPI Linux Certification in a Nutshell, Third Edition"

This has been updated to match the new LPIC-1 tests that were
implemented this April.  Unfortunately, it appears they also dropped
the LPIC-2 coverage - maybe we'll see that in a separate book?
