Bud,

I read the whole post that you were kind enough to
include. It looks as if the validator did not indicate
why the book was not accepted. But it's odd, too.
You're notice said that the book was not
accepted--much nicer than hearing that your book was
rejected, which is what the notices used to say, isn't
it? We seem to be having a kinder, gentler bookshare.
smile.

The notice also suggests that you contact
volunteer@xxxxxxxxxxxxx to find out what the problem
was, and then that you resubmit.
