Send a comp copy to the man at the Bootstrap Institute, early.
I would guess it's too late for corrections in the text, but I'd still
love to get a copy of the galleys or the manuscript. When I read it and
inevitably propose corrections, you can bug the publisher to put up a
web site and you can have forums there about the content and a chunk of
errata and revisions as well. It's also a good place for quotes from
Englebart and others.
How's that? Old ideas, eh? Well, I can't ever promise to be original, I
guess.

ps While Jef Raskin died in February, his book, The Humane Interface,
lives on, in nine languages and it still deserves reading by you and
your Compendium colleagues. You will have a new appreciation of the
avoidable problems of all the artifacts that people have to interact
with. See also RaskinCenter.org and shortly, the Alpha Release of
Archy, a software system built to the principles propounded in the
book.
