Theres still plenty of work that can be doled out for each book.  Without
worry
of the core rules.  For example book 1, ideas and brainstorming of new skills
and forming a master list, forming new supernatural powers fixing others. 
Reconfiguring the equipment to fit a more modern style with pictures and more
stats like measurements of weapons, etc.  Could even do an entire book on gear
alone like many systems do by itself.  Be very detailed.  I mean most folks
see
the Arbalest photo in the book and think wow but they really ought to know the
true measurements nd be amazed :).  Book 2 new magic and corrections to magic
in GENERAL forms.  Same for combat.  No rule modifications but just cleanup
and
corrections for the core mechanics to be worked on.  Book 3 new creatures,
better description of the upper world, etc.  Book 4 more details on the
treasure like NMIs and such.  Things like that all can be done without
worrying
about core rules at this point.  But alas Richard has to be the final decision
maker and decide on what course to so.  Take it book by book, rule by rule,
page by page or just jump in and drown :)
