A couple recent messages have indicated that people might be a little
confused about how the validation process works.
One person said they had to delete something in the book they downloaded
for validation before releasing it. That is not necessary, since if you
remember how the releasing process works, you will remember that you don't
upload anything. When you release a book the original file that was
submitted just goes back in the validation pool.
Another person said they had just validated something but had not gotten
the credit. The credit for validation doesn't appear immediately after you
get the page thanking you for your work. There is still hope that you will
get credit. Now if the book can now be found in the collection and you
still didn't get credit, either something is messed up or a different copy
of the book validated by someone else was accepted first.
