Dave,

You really don't understand "free" do you?  ;-)

I've attached an epub cut from the latest version of the Subversion 1.7
version of the book.  You (and others reading this) can have this at no
charge.  I only ask that you let me know if it works in your Kindle reader
(and if you had to do anything special to make it do so).

If you confirm that the file works as expected -- I've never tried it myself
-- I'll consider adding that file format to the list of ones we generate
nightly and post online (which would of course be available for folks to
download for free).
