Can you provide a summary here or over at the Big Nerd Ranch web site of the 'significant' changes relative to the 2nd edition. Assuming this book will mirror the course structure on your site, I can see what the new chapters will be but am more interested in knowing if there are any significant overhauls/expansions to the other chapters. This would help those of us with the 2nd edition make the decision on whether or not the 3rd edition makes sense for us or not.
Also, I'm drooling at the prospect of an Advanced Cocoa book... any chance you'll consider some sort of beta program where people could buy the book up front and get early drafts as protected PDF docs or something similar then get the final edition when it is published?
