I have two general ideas for complementary Racket books that I could write. But, at the moment, I would guess that the market for a complementary programming book, if we exclude the people who are better off working through HtDP, is about ten copies. Even if we view writing the book as an investment in the platform, then the question is whether the platform would be better served by expending the same effort on PLaneT packages instead.
