			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve been into Grails for a while and bought <a href="http://tinyurl.com/ahepfr">The Definitive Guide to Grails</a> (first Edition) a while ago.  The book is a good intro for beginners or a good reference for developers who have already built an app and gone through the online tutorials.  I actually bought the book after I&#8217;d worked with the framework for a few weeks and didn&#8217;t get much value out of it (I don&#8217;t use physical books as reference material, I prefer the interwebs for that).  It&#8217;s not a bad book at all, but it&#8217;s become a paper weight on my bookshelf, so I thought I&#8217;d see if anybody wants it.</p>
<p>So, long story short, if you want it, it&#8217;s yours.  Just be the first to comment here and willing to pay-pal the shipping cost to me and I&#8217;ll send it to ya.  If I don&#8217;t hear anything by the end of next week I&#8217;ll take it to the library (and I will know that (a) nobody reads this blog and/or (b) nobody wants a first edition book that I just gave a less than favorable review).  Alternatively to pay-pal and shipping, if you are an Atlanta peep, come get it.</p>
<p>Alternatively again, if you want to pull off a trade, I&#8217;m up for that and we can just pay our own shipping costs.  Programming stuff I&#8217;m interested in learning more about lately include: Python, Django, Objective C, XPath/DOM/CSS Selectors, whatever.  I&#8217;m sure there is a nice book trading service somewhere out there (if not a few hundred of &#8216;em), but I felt the urge to post it here, so here it is.  Lemme know if you want it.</p>
