Yeah, I guess I should read the actual manual rather than expecting things
to either be obvious or waiting for some actually prepared person to hold my
hand through the questions I come up with <embarrassed>.
I've spent a lifetime ignoring manuals and just jumping in and probably
close to half a lifetime trying to figure things out that would have been
obvious if I'd paid any attention to the actual instructions. Many years
ago, a couple of friends of mine from the legendary but now defunct Boston
Computer Society actually published a book about the early Macintosh
entitled "What You Would Have Learned About Your Macintosh Had You Read the
Manual Plus Other Tips" and sold quite a few copies. Although I had a Mac,
I didn't read their book either.
Have fun,

Hey Chris,
In future, just so you know, the way you hold a book for a particular
validator is simply to put said fact in the book's title. So, when
submitting a book, do everything as usual, and the title would be something
like, in the case of the Drupal book, HOLD for JIM H. Building Your Own
Professional... There's a paragraph on, I believe, the Step 1 page from
which books are downloaded for validation which specifically requests that
people respect HOLDS FOR. Validators are supposed to remove said bit from
the title when they check the book's data on the submission form for the
final time before uploading it to be published; most do, but some have not,
as I've occasionally still seen books with a HOLD FOR in the title in the
Admin Approval Queue, in which case I would assume that Carrie removes them.
HTH,
Maria

Hi,
I put the newly exported copy up on the sight. I don't know how to hold a
book for a particular validator but Jim H has said he wants to do it.
Enjoy,
