Thanks for the heads-up brianna. I left a comment on the blog explaining 
that we dont have an escrow option, but that there are other things that we 
could do besides. However, since the book in question has not yet been 
released, It will be a very long time before copyright reverts to the 
authors and it is possible to make this book free. Wishful thinking.

One thing that we definitely need is a more explicit and helpful page 
describing how to donate a book to Wikibooks, because it's a subject that 
comes up rather frequently. Maybe I'll put my money where my mouth is and 
start authoring such a page today.
