-% The Rust Programming Language
+# The Rust Programming Language
 
-There are two editions of "The Rust Programming Language":
+The current edition of "The Rust Programming Language" is the second
+edition, which you can [read here](second-edition/index.html).
 
-* [First edition](first-edition/index.html)
-* [Second edition](second-edition/index.html)
+The source for all editions lives [on GitHub](https://github.com/rust-lang/book).
+Please open issues with any questions, concerns, or tweaks.
 
-The second edition is a complete re-write. It is still under construction,
-though it is far enough along to learn most of Rust. We suggest reading the
-second edition and then checking out the first edition later to pick up some of
-the more esoteric parts of the language.
+## Notes
+
+The second edition is still receiving some minor edits, but is effectively
+complete. It will be [available in dead-tree form through NoStarch
+Press](https://nostarch.com/Rust) once these final edits are complete.
+
+The second edition is a complete re-write of TRPL, from the ground up,
+and is therefore very different from the first edition.
+
+## Other editions
+
+We keep older editions of TRPL online for history's sake. 
+
+### First Edition
+
+YOu can [read the first edition of "The Rust Programming Language"
+here](first-edition/index.html).
