Its a publishing system, so the public facing version of the book is different than the one you are editing.  The idea is that you can work on editing without affecting the public book, then when its ready for an update, you can flip the changes to the public version.

Derek and Adam always did that part, I haven't done it before, but it can be done whenever someone wants to take it on.
