Is that related to the Seymour Papert program that he described a bit
in Mindstorms: Children, Computers, and Powerful Ideas? To make math
work as a language learnable by children in the same way as
conventional languages, without special teaching? Math is of course a
language in many other ways as well, several of which I studied at
college and since.

I would definitely like to join this. Please also take a look at
http://booki.treehouse.su/ , the test server for the Sugar Labs
Replacing Textbooks project. If you wish, you can use booki rather
than Wiki markup to compose your work. This is Free Software designed
by the FLOSS Manuals project for making books.

Please give us an idea of what topics you would like to cover and what
approach you would like to take.
