I'd suggest committing sooner rather than later, or you are going to
suffer a daunting merge problem. You don't think the CVS docs are going
to hold still for long, do you?
I've watched tech writers at both Great Bridge and Red Hat make exactly
this mistake: accumulate huge amounts of editorial fixes, and then
discover that there wasn't any practical way to merge with the community
docs when it came time to do so --- because the community docs had
diverged from what they started from. Please don't follow in their
footsteps.

PS: a book project sounds cool. Can you give any details?
