Well I still know many people who use Ada, and will be using Ada for a 
number of years to come but who have absolutely no Internet access at 
all, so I can see a much larger audience for such a book than just those 
who read this newsgroup.

By your reasoning, it's a wonder why John Barnes, Norman Cohen et al 
bothered to write their books.

Personally I think it would be a brilliant idea for such a book to be 
written. I would certainly buy it.
