Hi, all. I've followed the links to the Volunteer stuff, and discovered
what is hopefully the correct mailing list.
I've got epub versions of Freeway Warrior, which I generated from your
xHTML sources on the en_US website.
It's a quick and dirty conversion done with Pandoc and some custom XML
as needed. I assume there are Docbook sources lying around someplace in
the Project Aon source archives that would make even better epubs. I'm
happy to add in the necessary XML to, for instance, populate the epub
chapter section and provide correct epub metadata, and then submit to
you the epub editions of the Freeway Warrior series.
Greetings, Klaatu! I have a feeling you might be able to make good use
of the data in our Subversion repository. Here are the source XML
documents for the English gamebooks:

Here is the directory containing the scripts we use to generate epub
files for the Lone Wolf series. We need to make some tweaks to make this
compatible with the Freeway Warrior series. Honestly, I don't recall
what all we need to do.

I made some temporary cover art from the fan art on your site (in the
Wallpaper section, if I recall correctly) and a scan of the title page
of the original books, but would rather use the original. Does someone
on this list have original cover art lying around? I did locate PDF
scans of the books on an archive site, but those too were missing cover
art...
We don't necessarily have the rights to use the original covers, so in
order to publish them on Project Aon, we'll need to make custom covers.
I hope that helps.
Jon
