Just came across this by accident while looking for something else. According to Amazon it's coming out Nov 09. Can't wait.Update: Scratch that, it's been delayed until mid December.
Gregor Maehle, an expert teacher and practitioner, offers a detailed and multifaceted exploration of Ashtanga yoga's Intermediate Series. A student of Sanskrit as well as anatomy and physiology, Maehle guides readers to the next level with unprecedentedly detailed anatomical explanations and unparalleled attention to the practice's philosophical and mythological heritage. More than 25 postures are meticulously articulated through photos, anatomical line drawings, and practical, informative sidebars. Maehle also goes deep into the mythology behind each posture's name, discusses the philosophical and spiritual background of yoga, and contextualizes Ashtanga yoga within the millennia of Indian cultural history. With passionate erudition, Maehle prepares readers to reap physical, spiritual, and mental fulfillment in their evolving practice.

Oh and I came across a blog today called Subtle Bliss that I seem to have missed somehow. Perhaps it's not on Ashtanga Net, if you've missed it too, check it out here http://subtlebliss.blogspot.com/ I've just spent the last hour flicking through some of their old posts. It ranges over all things Ashtanga, nice look to it and some great content, but be prepared to lose an hour or two.
