The book is great, but to my mind there is too big a margin over the
left. This is an issue because it is hard to maximise the font size
and keep everything on the screen. Could the margin not be reduced to
one quarter of its size?

Nope, still gone. When I look at the response header I see it's a
404 NOT FOUND.

Is the spanish translation on the roadmap? Latinuxpress has made the
3d edition. I opened a thread in the spanish group asking the same.
How is the translation work being managed?. Is it open to
colaboration? I see that for example the italian has the 3d edition
label and there seems to be just one translator.

Very nice. Note, "experts4soluions" should be "experts4solutions" (in the 
menu and on the login page).

I miss the second level headings in the chapter TOCs -- very helpful for 
finding topics. Also, not too big a deal, but maybe consider generating the 
chapter TOCs server side -- there's often quite a lag with the client side 
JS rendering.
