so let's do some real work, ok?

in order to do a good job on a converter routine,
you have to know what object you're shooting for.

luckily for us in the present case, we just went through
the process of deciding how we want our .epub and .mobi
output files to look, thanks to jim's many "contributions".

i did some slight updating, to reflect jana's suggestions,
and have uploaded those two files to the website for you.

first, here's a copy of the .html (in a combined file):
>   http://76.74.254.239/~bowerbird/jjngl-combined.html

next, here's a copy of the .epub file:
>   http://76.74.254.239/~bowerbird/jjngl.epub

and here's a copy of the .mobi file:
>   http://76.74.254.239/~bowerbird/jjngl.mobi

these files represent the outcome that we want
from our conversion process, so we will _know_
when we have attained success in that regard...

the .mobi was generated by dropping the .epub on
the kindle previewer.  that's a very handy tool that
saves us the hassle of generating a separate .mobi.

in addition, if the .epub file is bad, it gives us some
error messages that help trace down the problems,
a nicety the .epub gang was slow to offer themselves.

at any rate, if anyone has any feedback on those files,
do please let me know.  (although you _should_ have
given that feedback when we did the process earlier.)

if there are no suggestions, then we can proceed...

p.s.  don't delay.  i will be totally unresponsive if you
come in at some later time and want to change it all...
