Kiran Kedlaya's Geometry Unbound

Kiran Kedlaya has released his work thus far on Geometry Unbound, a book on olympiad-level geometry (and beyond). The book is free, under the GNU Free Documentation license. It's very challenging, but those of you who are comfortable getting into olympiad geometry should check it out. More info, and the book itself, here: http://math.mit.edu/~kedlaya/geometryunbound

If anyone takes the time to add the diagrams to it, please let us know!

I did! Smile
I've just finished drawing the diagrams with this program:
http://mathsrv.ku-eichstaett.de/MGF/homes/grothmann/java/zirkel/doc_en/index.html

You can download them here:
http://andfog.altervista.org/math/geometry-unbound-figures.zip

This is just the first version, some diagrams should be improved or added in the future... and it would be better to put them directly into the book.
I've exported each diagram in three formats:
- ZuL's native format (.zir), so you'll be able to edit the constructions
- .png, compressed raster images
- .svg, vectorial images

That's all. Bye bye (I hope you understand my poor English Blush )

Also, .eps is usually the easiest format to include into a LaTeX file.

Thank you for the feedback!
I tried to add .eps files (but they don't look so good Embarassed )

I've put the diagrams ad an attachment.

Hey y'all...anyone know where one could find the solutions to the problems? At the back of the book, it said that the solutions are on some website, but it didn't list where. Thanks!

A TeX file of the solutions for the original MOP notes is here, I think.
