[snip] Things about BK's viewpoint on digital text [/snip]
You make some excellent and salient points.
however, when i add in the fact that i have been _abused_by_ those mid-level people over at internet archive, i can tell you that i have absolutely zero interest in doing _any_ work that might benefit them, no matter how indirect that benefit is...
I understand.
so, um, no, alex, i'm not interested in doing anything with you that would be housed at, or based within, the internet archive. i'm sorry 'bout that, but i trust you understand my explanation.
Yep.
i will be setting up a demonstration of an online proofing site, one geared toward taking a book from o.c.r. to e-book output, in the fashion that i just laid out in my recent series of lessons.
my site will use content from the internet.archive, or course, and other sites as well, but it will be completely independent.
if you'd like to work with me on my site, alex, that'd be fine...
i'm not _asking_ for help from anyone, and i won't _need_ it, but i have no reason to turn anyone down who wants to help. even if they're from the internet archive... ;+)
I'd be delighted to. Alex
