Hilda and I have been fiddling wtih Pressbooks, and right about now are thinking it's not the best platform for a large collaborative writing project that we want to complete quickly! Short version of the story:
- admin overhead -- need to send out invitations to join, etc
- compartmentalized - essentially each section is a blog post, so takes some thought to how you want to organize it before you begin (who works that way!)
But LOVE the etherpad / booksprint idea!
I just fired up an etherpad page:

Let's schedule it! How about tomorrow (Friday, February 10), say 10:00 am PST? (Just throwing out a time to see if anyone says no, we need to pick a different time)
