Many years ago, Michael Hart was interviewed by someone whose name I don’t remember.  The interviewer wanted to get a taste of what was involved in producing an ebook.  I was asked to help him.  He first chose a source book that looked simple (but wasn’t), so he asked me to choose something.  I have no memory now of what it was.  He worked his way through the basics, but I think I did a fair amount of hand-holding and final cleanup.

Some of the article may have come from material produced by Marie Lebert, a French writer on ebooks.  In 2008 and 2011, I assisted with producing several of her works now in PG—do a Quick Search for “t:project gutenberg a:lebert”.  You should get four hits: 27039, 27045, 31632, and 36616.

Too bad the article isn’t dated--that might shed some light.

It looks like a class project, maybe? A cute encapsulation of PG from 2010.
