Wonderfull news! Thanks a lot for publishing it under Creative Commons (CC-BY-NC-SA 3.0) license for all to see (and improve).

I'll send a few comments later (BTW. would you prefer to have it here, or private?).

One comment about on-line version: it might be better to have one chapter and not one (sub)section per HTML page. There are some sections that are not enough to even fill one single page.
