Author Notes
Book History
This book originally began a series of notes for my own use. After a while, friends began to
ask for copies, and enemies started to steal it, so I decided to tidy everything up and give it
away. Over the years, new chapters have been added as DB2 has evolved, and as I have found
new ways to solve problems. Hopefully, this process will continue for the foreseeable future.
Why Free
This book is free because I want people to use it. The more people that use it, and the more
that it helps them, the more inclined I am to keep it up to date. For these reasons, if you find
this book to be useful, please share it with others.
This book is free, rather than formally published, because I want to deliver the best product
that I can. If I had a publisher, I would have the services of an editor and a graphic designer,
but I would not be able to get to market so quickly, and when a product changes as quickly as
DB2 does, timeliness is important. Also, giving it away means that I am under no pressure to
make the book marketable. I simply include whatever I think might be useful.
