Tom, do you think you should forward this directly to John with a carbon
copy to Gustavo?  That is what I would do in your case.

Just some thoughts.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Recent rejections of Dale Brown Books


    Hi John, Tonight I received six rejection notices for Dale Brown
titles.Did you happen to notice when these books were submitted, and when
they finally showed up on the admin-Q?  It's been over a year!  Not to
mention numerous letters to Gustavo asking as to the where abouts of the
books which apparently disappeared into the Bookshare ether and have been
lost until NOW! If I had been noticed of the condition they were returned in
from being validated in a timely manor, they could have been fixed! As it
is, I no longer have the original scans or the books.  I'm  sure they  had
either section-breaks or page-breaks when originally submitted.

Recently I received a rejection for Deep Black.  Supposedly it had no
page-breaks, which I know it had, because I still have the original
submission file.  The validator apparently unwittingly stripped the page
breaks from the file and then  rejected it. So now what about Behind the
Door, which has been sitting in the admin Q since last October?  How many
hours of work do you suppose this represents? Yes just a little miffed!  I
know this is not your fault, but maybe you can pass my feelings along to
someone else where it may do some good, or not! Something needs to change in
the way things are being handled!  Thanks for listening.
Tom Hawkins
