I believe PG should change their policy (if they haven't already) and for all new titles to include the full citation of the source (or sources if someone made a composite using two or more differing editions, which btw I believe PG should discourage.) ... Anyway, there are a few other arguments in support of full source citation, including the most important: assuring integrity of the text to the original source. This is not a trivial issue.
I agree too and suggest that may be this information could be kept in a XML format conforming some DTD (PG own) so that the book can be very easily processed or catalogued. But this is going too far from the plain text idea PG was built and still succesfuly lives on. -- Skippi mailto:skip@nextra.sk
