I very much agree with the 14-day proof reading period. Was thinking about
that the other day in fact.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Renewal period


I think that's an excellent suggestion, Mike, and now, with engineering
still working on  it, should be an easy time to make the change.

If one were to prioritize, if we had any choice in prioritizing, would that
fix be more important to most of you than the fixing of the Recent Books
site, or would you like to have that be updated first? Not that we have any
choice, probably, but since I make a note on m calendar of when to renew my
books that bothers me less than not having the recent books added lists
current. I know there are, at least on my computer and email, reminders
calendars and notes; are they audio as well?
