Certainly! By all means.

Matrix and vector chapter would be a good place to start - in the
process you could also debug the vector package a little :-). You need
emaxima with its latex abilities working in order to work on the Book.
Also, if you like you could pick a package and begin writing the
MaximaBook section on that if it's easier to start with something a
little less general.
Progress on MaximaBook has been essentially nonexistant for a while -
I've been too busy to do much with it, and likely will be for quite a
while - perhaps even until next summer :-(. You never know, of course,
but it doesn't look promising. The cvs directory contains the current
maximabook structure and source - let me know if you can't get it to
work and I'll make a tarball of the latest incarnation.
