    Heidi and Cliff (and others who have an interest),<br>
    <br>
    The Alice 3 and Java textbook (by Wanda, Don, Laura, and Dave)<br>
    has been completed since early Spring and has been in beta-test mode<br>
    in classroom this fall. <br>
    <br>
    We have received the first "proof" stage (known as First Pages) and<br>
    are currently reviewing these chapters.  Some updates need to be
    made,<br>
    based on feedback from the textbook beta testers.  It will then<br>
    go to camera ready copy in December.<br>
    <br>
    The book is scheduled to be "in print" in January.  I am not sure
    when it<br>
    will appear on Pearson/Prentice Hall's catalog (or on the internet)<br>
    for ordering... but I am hopeful that getting copies out for
    shipment<br>
    will follow quickly.<br>
    <br>
    This is an exciting time for the Alice team and we are so <br>
    grateful for your interest and anticipation.  <span
