Guido and others,
What I'm doing is rejecting the book with volumiinous comments to the
effect of whats up with the thing. They do read these, so if they want it
in the collection, they'll return it with more comments. Then I can add
synapses and employ random strippers to said text. Then maybe it'll be
usable and/or enjoyable to the reader. Otherwise I feel no need to give
up my designated stripper to said action because s/he would be employed
for too many hours on the project to be profitable.

At 11:47 PM 6/14/2004, you wrote:
Sorry folks, but at this time you can't add comments if you release the
book. Try instead to approve/upload the book. Then in the final approval
page, add a comment and nuke the book. Just in case, add a similar
comment in the final rejection page, as I am not sure which comment gets
picked up from where. This is one of those tremendously obscure things
which would require one of the Bookshare folks to give us some guidance.
Gustavo, Jesse, Peter: anyone there?

Hi, Noel! if the text is okay, you might want to just release it, with a
note in the Comments field to the effect that this particular book will
need
a VERY patient validator! <Smile>
