I'm sure I'll have additional comments as time goes on, but, you might also look at the top 100 title list for some ideas on what else to include. Thanks! Sincerely Aaron Cannon At 02:52 PM 5/10/2005, you wrote:
making CD / DVD best of 2005.
Which books, and why?
I am eager to create an updated CD and DVD from the 2 that already exist, including the corrected versions.
My motivation is 2 fold, people for better or worse download things that they think are the most current--using robots to get the most current versions vs. just the CD, etc. and because it does make the site more useable if one download gets them some wonderful content directly--and we all would want it to be the most current (and hopefully correct) versions.
Many people have broadband now, and Bittorrent makes many things easier.
I know there are some challenges in getting it together, then maintaining it, because the format of presenting the content has changed.
Usually, without tagging the content itself, within a field to id that content as going onto a complitation, the only other method of selection is an index of choices for the CD or DVD.
To start things off, I'd like to use the existing selections, update them, and make the CD available again.
I also will review the new titles, Sherlock is near and dear to all our hearts, I'm sure, and include them if possible and their popularity warrents it.
It would be nice to have a method to automatically update it -- fairy tales and all -- so that the site, and this part of it appear to be current.
This last goal is additional work, but might be well worth it.
Do any of the volunteers or programmers have feedback on these ideas?
