A link posted recently about books had a very enlightening section on this
topic. Go to:
    http://www.mindview.net/Books/TICPP/ThinkingInCPP2e.html
then follow the link:
    Why do you put your books on the web?

In essence, the author says that the viability of on-line publishing depends
strongly on the type of book. So you need to look at your book with that in
mind.
