[bksvol-discuss] Re: I ching books

Do you still have the print book? and the rtf file? Then why not just continue working on the book, then submit it as a BSO when it is in the shape you think it should be. Then explain in the comments for the staff why you have resubmitted it. That's your only recourse at this point I fear. That's what I would do. There's no way of ensuring that a validator even reads through a book, let alone does the kind of work that might be necessary to get those charts into useful form. Sure, Bookshare could require such things, but how would it be enforced. Besides, not everyone reads this list. The person who took it may not have seen your message about the charts.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] I ching books


I notice somebody validated I Ching in Plain English.
I admit I released it along with the other I Ching books I had. I stated on the list that I did so while working on the charts at the back of the book. Without the charts it is impossible to find what hexagram you cast. I now downloaded the copy which just appeared on the new books page. No charts exist at the end of the book. So nobody getting the book will be able to use it.

With all the books on step 1 and with my explanation on this list, why is it necessary for the dilligent validator of the I Ching book to grab this one and then not put charts in the back in a form anybody can read? The book is basically useless without them.

I am so upset I am considering quitting validating for several months until some way is found to prevent overzealous people from simply grabbing a book and claiming to have validated it.
