Hi! It does seem that eveybody has their complaints! It's impressive: one person voices concerns, and proposes solutions, and we get to hear everybody's concerns, and how those are far more important. And then... well... Each of these problems may ultimately be a valid problem that needs to be addressed, but each of them is do-able, technically. In each case, it's a matter of looking at the thing a different way. Technically, no one problem is particularly difficult here. Technically. Oh well. Hey! Here's something completely different! I just made an e-book with an imbedded Devanagari font that shows some hymns from the Rig Veda in Sanskrit! Ah well. It looks very very cool. C ya!

Hi,
I have several questions.
I got a nice e-book reader, and became interested in the Gutenberg collection. The collection itself is great! Some of the e-books are almost unusable on my reader, mostly due to unfortunate automatic formatting.
So...I took the e-books apart, and re-formatted them. Then I tested them in several e-reader environments. I think they're very nice now. And, I would like to share these improvements, preferably through the Gutenberg project.
** Does the project accept these kinds of improvements to text?
I see some talk of old and new editions in the books. ** Would such changes constitute new editions?
** What are the preferred procedures?
** Is this a good forum for general technical and policy questions regarding Gutenberg e-books?
Thanks!
