My draft book Certified Programming with Dependent Types <http://adam.chlipala.net/cpdt/> is almost ready to enter the editorial process at MIT Press, in preparation for conventional publication. I've finished my own tweaking and proofreading, and now I'm looking for a few more people to do thorough proofreading.

I'm probably not going to implement major changes, but I'm very eager to learn not just of typos but also of localized bits of explanation or coding choices that are bad.

I'll continue to be grateful for problems reported by anyone at any time, but I also hope to find a few (about 3?) "serious" proofreaders who are willing to commit to reading everything on a prearranged time scale (TBD), so I can pass on a schedule of my own to MIT Press. It's the PDF version, not the HTML version, of CPDT that should be considered canonical for this purpose.

So, I'll appreciate e-mail from anyone who'd like to volunteer for this task. Thanks in advance!

(It's probably worth saying what the book is about: It's an introduction to Coq, assuming nothing but experience with a typed functional language and undergraduate-level knowledge of discrete math and logic. The style I follow is very different from what is found in any other resource out there, with a focus on dependent types and Ltac automation.)
