Re: [bksvol-discuss] yes, let's get tough.As far as "sage advice" goes, 
after hearing John in the discussion last week, I think he may have the 
right voice for a sage. <smile>

    Keep in mind that not all volunteers subscribe to the lists. So you may 
be preaching to the choir. John Glass is working on setting up a 
distribution that can go to all volunteers in which he will offer sage 
advice and guidance, along with the information that all volunteers must 
read the volunteer manual.

    Hi listers,
    Since bookshare has seen fit to raise credit for validators, we should 
get tough.
    I was just up on the step one page, and the first two books I looked at, 
were shown to be fair with many errors.
    My suggestion is this. If you know a book is fair with many errors, why 
are you submitting it at all? If I get a book like that, chances are, I'm 
likely to reject it. If you can't check your scans, clean them up and make 
them good, then don't do it. Sure, I have submitted books that weren't good, 
and I had to learn a lot of things, and I understand that. When you first 
start out you mess up. I understand that, but come on, some of these books 
weren't submitted by new folks just learning. We all have to do the best 
scans we can, it is up to us, and no one else.
