This book is short on the number of pages but not necessarily on content. The books author approaches Software Development Project Management as a problem and offers up how you can use Trac and Subversion as a solution.
The book starts to talk about what Software Development Project Management is a how to break it up into its pieces. It then proceeds to introduce how to make Software Development Project Management easier with Trac, Subversion, Apache Web Server and WebDAV. The book then begins to describe how to use Trac and Subversion of some of the details of each.
Overall, the book is a good starting point if you want to add Trac and Subversion to your project. There are two things that I would have liked to see in the book however. The first is the use of TortoiseSVN client as opposed to the command line. The second is less use of the command line, while this is OK for Linux developers and some Windows developers, most do not like to use command lines.

So, I heard that the Sitefinity application had this generic content module that was pretty easy to extend. Well since I wanted to add a few new features to the Southeast Valley .NET User Group web site and I do not have a great deal of time, I decided to dive in a extend it. Well let me tell you that with a little digging (about a week’s worthL) I was able to pull it off. So that you do not have to go through the pain, I will lay out the instructions for you. This guide will require virtually no coding, just a little HTML markup and some web.config changes.

Well the time is here for the Southeast East Valley .NET User Group to hold it first of two meetings to compare different Object Relational Mapper technologies. Some of the representative technologies will be LINQ, nHibernate, LLBGen Pro, and more.

Well as you can see the title is quite but extremely accurate. The book covers a "real world" use of Windows Workflow foundation. The author takes you through Windows Workflow Foundation by building a bug tracking application which is an ideal candidate for a workflow technology. I think this approach is what makes this book stand apart from other Windows Workflow foundation books. It is short and concise and gives you a real application of the technology. This is not a book filled with marketing fluff or the Hello World app (with the exception of the first chapter).
Overall, this book is a good read for those that want to get started in Windows Workflow Foundation.
