Thanks Ken, I just checked yesterday and the bookstore mentioned that
O'Reilly had marked the book's scheduled publication date as unknown. If
I understand it correctly, now there will be only one book, not two.

Look forward to getting it.

Contents

                All,

                Well, it's done. I am now waiting for the green light
from O'Reilly so
                that I can make the 2400-dpi camera-ready copy. The
total page count
                came to 1,174 (including front matter). In case you were
not aware,
                O'Reilly decided, at the last minute, to merge "CJKV
Reference Guide"
                back into this book to make a single volume. O'Reilly's
URL for the
                book is:

                  http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/cjkvinfo/

                Anyway, I am appended below the Table of Contents so you
can get a
                feeling for what's included. If all goes well, the book
may be
                available by the end of November.

                Regards...

                -- Ken Lunde
