- I took off about five weeks from work (at various times) to write the book - along with numerous weekends and late nights
- I decided to write Continuous Integration while on a train from Rome to Florence, Italy in June 2004. Addison-Wesley accepted my proposal in late 2004
- I write an article series for IBM developerWorks called Automation for the people which explores techniques in automating developer activities. Continuous Integration refers to some of the articles I wrote in this series
