Regular readers of this blog will know of my long-standing love for NUnit. This week I have been spending a lot of time with NAnt and getting all my project build files in its format (for 1.1/VS.NET 2003 based projects) as a step towards MSBuild on Whidbey projects, I also have been working a lot with NDoc, which is particuarly amazing at producing MSDN format help files with little effort after some adequate XML commenting. There is a new book, Open Source .NET Development : Programming with NAnt, NUnit, NDoc, and More, that looks very promising. SoftPro has it already so Amazon should be anyday now. The book is described as:

Open Source .NET Development is the definitive guide on .NET development in an open-source environment.

Inside, readers will find in-depth information on using NAnt, NDoc, NUnit, Draco.NET, log4net, and Aspell.Net with both Visual Studio .NET and the Mono Project. Brian Nantz not only shares the best open-source and "free" tools, frameworks, components, and products for .NET, he also provides usable, practical examples and projects. The result is a highly accessible reference for finding the tools that best fit your needs.

Looks perfect!
