I don’t think it should delve very far into TT. There’s already
an O’Reilly book for it. There should definitely be some material
on it, if only to make the book a well-rounded intro, but I think
you get far enough with just the TT basics that the exposition
can be kept pretty short.

Yes, I agree. Although I understand that Johnathan’s book is
already quite a way along, and I don’t know how he structured it
(he posted an outline and dicussion though), but whatever it is
is probably not changing at this point.
