Hi Susanne,
I hope that this letter has been
overtaken by events. I have now published a couple of the
patterns. There will be more to come later.
I got rather caught up in writing
contributions for a book. It started as a small job and grew into
a much bigger one.
As you may guess, I always have new
papers in draft form. Unfortunately these are often on paper and
not in electronic form. I prefer to work on paper first. I am
always looking for pre-publication reviewer and I would be happy
for you to volunteer :-)
I hope that you liked the Chessboard
pattern article and you will find more of them useful in future.
You are, of course, quite correct.
The real meat is "how to take analysis and turn it into a
design". I don't believe that any author has adequately
answered this yet. I hope to plug this gap with many more white
papers of the coming months and years.
Lastly, I take you point about the
site design. As you may have noticed the site design is subtlely
changing. This is happening as I learn more about website design
and more about what the visitors want to do. The site is changing
to one which is optimised for finding information particularly for
those who simply want to find what is new in the latest edition.
The menu bar along the top remains for those who simply want to
surf through.
Lookout for a radical redesign of the
site early next year.
Regards,
