Thanks, Gerald.
I wrote to John.
I didn't think about the "re-submitting" thing for any credit.  I can see
where that could get real confusiing real fast.

I told John I'd offer to convert and send to him or someone who could just
place the book I converted from .ARK to .RTF back on the Step 1 page.   If
that can help.

Meanwhile, I'll try and get to a book every week or two if I can.  But the
several I have done have taken me into using time I just don't have right
now.  Although I would like to do more.

Thanks.
Rik

Rick,

I don't think Bookshare wants us resubmitting books in different formats to
allow more volunteers to be able to validate a book.  In any case, this
sounds more like a policy issue, and it would be more appropriate to ask the
staff if this is acceptable.  Perhaps you should ask John Glass, the
Customer Support Manager.  His address is John.G@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

I have OpenBook.  But I don't really consider myself yet much of a validator
either by skill or with enough time to do all of them.  I know there are a
lot of .ARK files on Step 1 page.

I was wondering... Would it be of any use if I would download a bunch of
them, 1 at a time of course, and then re-submit them up in the Rich Text
Format?  

I'd be happy to do at least some of these, if is acceptable or someone can
suggest how I might best do it.

Rik
