Sue, Not Tom, but I just checked and it's on the Administrator Approval list still--along with Brain and The Last Express. We'll probably have to wait until after the holiday for books to move off that list. I wish there was some way we could help. When I first joined as a volunteer, among the instructions and choices of jobs to do was this: "Volunteers also help prepare the submissions of others for publication. This is done using our volunteer-only "Publish" pages. The Publish process involves verifying key information about a submission, assuring that the submission is a legal scan and not from a proprietary ebook provider, and either approving or rejecting the book." When I asked about that, because it sounded like something I'd like to do, I was told that job wasn't being done by volunteers any more/ Maybe it could be re-activated, and then we'd get to Jim's touted 3,000 books much more quickly.
