I am not the culprit--it is not my kind of book, and I remember seeing
your message about why you released them. But please do not get angry
with
me for saying this. Why did you release them when you were not finished?
Why didn't you hang onto them until you finished the charts? Those are
very
special books. I hope you will finish and put BSO on them as Evan
suggested.
Best regards,
Sue S.
E., Please do not quit validating.

The person who took it did not see the junk characters either.

Do you still have the print book? and the rtf file? Then why not
just continue working on the book, then submit it as a BSO when it
is in the shape you think it should be. Then explain in the comments
for the staff why you have resubmitted it. That's your only recourse
at this point I fear. That's what I would do. There's no way of
ensuring that a validator even reads through a book, let alone does
the kind of work that might be necessary to get those charts into
useful form. Sure, Bookshare could require such things, but how
would it be enforced. Besides, not everyone reads this list. The
person who took it may not have seen your message about the charts.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] I ching books
I notice somebody validated I Ching in Plain English.
I admit I released it along with the other I Ching books I had. I
stated on the list that I did so while working on the charts at the
back of the book. Without the charts it is impossible to find what
hexagram you cast. I now downloaded the copy which just appeared on
the new books page. No charts exist at the end of the book. So
nobody getting the book will be able to use it.
With all the books on step 1 and with my explanation on this list,
why is it necessary for the dilligent validator of the I Ching book
to grab this one and then not put charts in the back in a form
anybody can read? The book is basically useless without them.
I am so upset I am considering quitting validating for several
months until some way is found to prevent overzealous people from
simply grabbing a book and claiming to have validated it.
