[bksvol-discuss] Re: looking for people scanning the following

I have NEVER sent an announcement to booksbeingscanned@xxxxxxxxxxxxx and
I'm the one who scanned Wife to the Bastard. So if I didn't send an
announcement saying I was scanning it to that email address, why do I have
to wait until I find out it's in the collection (which I don't always find
out) and then send an email to that address to tell them it's in the
collection?

Now if I had sent an email then I would expect when I'm done scanning it I
could send an email and say ok I'm done scanning it. Books being SCANNED is
that--books being SCANNED.

I still don't like the whole wishlist/scanned process. It would be so much
easier if you could submit a wish like you can submit a book. Then someone
could "check out" the wish and then people would know you're scanning the
book. Then you "check in" the wish when you're done scanning it and it goes
onto the ready for proofreading page. Bookshare wouldn't have to maintain
ANY lists at all. The wishlist would maintain itself. The being scanned
page would maintain itself. Nobody would have to worry about emailing an
email address 4 to 6 months after they've scanned something that they never
asked to be put on a list to begin with.
