Apologies to those to who have heard this from me already, but I would
like to draw people's attention to a new site where you can express your
interest in bringing specific out-of-print math books back into print:
http://outofprintmath.blogspot.com
I explain the motivation for the above site here:

Since f.o.m. is unfashionable even among mathematicians, books in f.o.m.
seem particularly vulnerable to going out of print. So I encourage FOMers
to post suggestions and use this site as a focal point for lobbying for
specific titles of interest. The site is new, but if enough people learn
about it and use it then it could become a valuable source of information.
If you like the site, then please spread the word to your colleagues.
Tim
