Nmap book reviewers

[Fyodor <fyodor () insecure org>]

Hi all.  I'm delighted to announce that the Nmap book is now at the
printer and, if things go well, I hope to release it on Amazon and the
like in mid-December.  Smack dab between the holidays may not be
perfect timing for a book release, but I didn't want to delay any
longer!  Here is a quick description:

   Nmap Network Scanning is the official guide to the Nmap Security
   Scanner. From explaining port scanning basics for novices to
   detailing low-level packet crafting methods used by advanced
   hackers, this book suits all levels of security and networking
   professionals. A 42-page reference guide documents every Nmap
   feature and option, while the rest of the book demonstrates how to
   apply those features to quickly solve real-world tasks.  More
   information and sample chapters are available at
   http://nmap.org/book.

Now that I've written down everything I know about network scanning,
I'm at the stage of sending out review copies before the big launch.
I hope that good reviews and press will make up for the bad timing and
help get the word out.  So if any of you have ideas of good
publications or individual reviewers, please let me know.
Publications can be web sites, influential blogs, magazines, etc.  Or
you can suggest individual people, such as journalists and well-read
bloggers who might be interested.  Think about what sites and articles
you read and whether they might be appropriate for a security book
review.

If you think of anyone (or any publications) that might be a good fit,
let me know!  Self-publishing is great because it allowed me to post
many chapters online already without having to beg permission from
some publisher who would likely say no.  But the down side is that
there is no publisher to do marketing and sales.  So reviews are that
much more important.

Cheers,
-F
