moreover, i have created a clean version of the same edition
that jim used.  so imagine that i am going to submit it to p.g.,
along with the pagescans, to create a better overall package...

this is the question for jim.

what should p.g. do with my submission?

1.  reject it.

2.  put it under a new number.

3.  accept it, and overwrite jim's edition with mine, complete
with a new credit-line mentioning "a volunteer", but no name.
(i would not take a joint credit-line, because that might imply
we'd worked together; and likely neither would jim, probably.
it would be acceptable to me if the credit-line got _deleted_.)
jim's flawed version could be stored in the "old" subdirectory,
because hey, nobody ever looks inside those anyway, do they?

anyone else is invited to chip in their opinion as well, but i am
especially interested in jim's thoughts.  and, if he makes a post
before thanksgiving, i will consider it in my deliberations about
whether or not, after thanksgiving weekend, i will indeed make
a submission to p.g. of a corrected edition of jim's "huck finn".
