That would be great! The first task would be though to merge the SAMS edit 
work to the master TeX document. I can provide you with the Word files from 
SAMS and give you access to the book repository, which is located in a 
special repository on zope.org.

Not with my support! :-) Wikis/ReST suck when it comes to professional 
publishable writing, since you can not (a) insert meta-data, such as indexes, 
and (b) define styles easily as it is desired.

I orginially had the book in StructuredText. But eventually the frustration 
grew too high and I created this solution, which is much better. Note that 
the TeX sources have all the scripts in place to generate HTML and PDF and 
upload the files to zope.org.

Stephan
