Positive Feedback Is Always Good

I just stumbled across a review for my book “Managing Software Development with Trac and Subversion”:

Just finished reading this book, and have to say it’s great. The style is easy to understand, and the step by step approach is perfectly done.

Nice!

He goes on to say:

Admittedly it does not go into the more advanced uses and configurations available, but I would recommend this book to the novice user setting up SVN for the first time. After following the instructions in this book I was able to go back to the official SVN User Guide from the SVN website and understand what they were going on about :)

His criticism is valid, however the book was deliberately written not as a general guide but as a specific way of working.
