May be worth following up? Author wants an option to easily be able to donate his books to Wikibooks after a certain date (when the copyright reverts to being his).

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.
