Good selection of "projects," I think, ranging from beginner (change your oil) to expert (remove the engine).

I have been using Wayne's book for a few months and it's a great overview of the projects for a 997I replaced the water pump and will be pulling the coil packs/plugs shortly, this is a great reference until the Bentley book comes out.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

FYI
Listed for release in Amazon, just ordered my copy, should receive it on January 15th.
Finally Wayne got it done.....been waiting for it for a while......
Is it just a DVD that you order from amazon with cool things you can do to your porsche?
EDIT: NVM looked it up, its a book. Sounds cool, ill pick one up once they start having inventory.
I got the book today.....very nice.....plenty of projects with pictures and good explanation on how to do them......well worth it for the DIY'r and for those who are a little afraid of working on their cars......
The book matched my expectations......
Not sure if "more projects"......but I am sure it has them better documented, better categorized, better presented...in a nutshell, it is a
book
.....not an internet forum......
The book is now on Amazon for only $24, free prime shipping. Just hit 'buy now', should be here Thursday!
A bargain compared to the $147 Bentley Service Manual and the $80 '996 Essential Companion" books! :-)
If you go to the Amazon listing, you can "look inside" and see the table of contents with the project listing...

Mine arrived today ...thumbed through it for an hour or so. Good selection of "projects," I think, ranging from beginner (change your oil) to expert (remove the engine). Well illustrated, with links to additional pics and info online. Obviously, nowhere near as detailed as the Bentley manual, but IMO worth the $24.
It's nowhere near as exhaustive as the Bentley as far as items covered, but makes up for it in the detailed instructions (the Bentley can be a little...light...on details - "To reassemble, do everything you did over the past day backwards."
I have been using Wayne's book for a few months and it's a great overview of the projects for a 997I replaced the water pump and will be pulling the coil packs/plugs shortly, this is a great reference until the Bentley book comes out. I saw the Bentley guys at an event last year and asked about the 997 manual, they said they are working on it and I would bet it will be published next year. You can go to the Bentley site and sign up for a notification when it's released.

I'll admit that I only did a little bit of searching, but does anyone know what happened to all the links that were in the book for each project. I get a page not found error with
