Yeah, I am quite random and I hope I am helping the community out a little.

I correct errors as soon as I am made aware of them. The last update was 2 days ago. The latest version can be found at: http://www.slideshare.net/krizsan/scdjws-5-study-notes-3085287
If you find any errors or such in any of my electronic books, do not hesitate to contact me here!
Best wishes!

Ivan,

Now thats cool, reply from the author. So the industry is more and more moving to webservices so Im looking to get a good foundation and heck while Im at it might take a stab at the cert, 310-230. So now two additional questions for you

1. I will probably reference other material, but would you say your text is complete? i.e could your book be used as a sole source to pass the 310-230?

2. Do you have objections of me printing and binding your text? i.e taking it down to a copy center, making one copy for myself only. never to be sold?

Thanks

No, I don't want to say that my text is to be used as the only material in preparation of the certification. This certification is, as far as I know, the largest Java certification.

2. Do you have objections of me printing and binding your text? i.e taking it down to a copy center, making one copy for myself only. never to be sold?


Apart from the environmental aspects: No, it is fine with me. The study notes are licensed under a Creative Commons license. Please follow the link in the document to view the details of the license.

I tend to hang our here, also randomly, so if you have any questions related to web services in general or my study notes in particular then do not hesitate to drop by!
Best wishes!
