wait, when did this happen? For some reason I thought the 3rd revision was due in the New Year.

Just to clarify, if I order from Starting Strength: Basic Barbell Training | The Aasgaard Company, I'll get the 3rd revision even though it says 2nd revision?

Dammit.

Does "in circulation" mean that it's the one currently being sold? Or does it mean it's being circulated among proof readers etc., before it becomes the current version?

All the stock available for sale now from Amazon or our website is the newest version. It says "2nd revision" on the copyright page.

So if the newest version is the 2nd revision, what did you mean when you said that the 3rd revision is "in circulation"? Or are you implying that the newest version is the 3rd revision, but it mistakenly says it's the 2nd revision? I suppose if it's the third iteration (of the 3rd edition), then it's the second time it's been revised.

My copy just says 3rd edition on the copyright page - no mention of a revision.

What about the Kindle version? Are there different revisions?

You have an old copy. When we revise a few sentences, we don't always formally call it a new revision.
