You're one person; The *your* there covers dozens of people. I'd be a lot happier if there wasn't so much weight on your concerns.
We don't want to end at PG like you ended at DP: with a backlog of several thousand books stuck in the queue that are proofread but cannot be posted because your PPing takes so long.
Then we can take our books elsewhere. There's a bunch of places willing to host books, and if PG isn't willing to put enough weight on the needs of the largest ebook transcribers on the net, then I'm sure someone else will.
Managing complexity means I have to say no to most proposals. If I hadn't said no a thousand times in the past, the PG web site would no longer work nor be maintenable.
It doesn't work; it comes up in German most of the time. The fact it neither comes up in English, nor uses the Accept-Language header correctly is a flaw that renders most of the other stuff pointless. It's probably connected to the reasons the most famous ebook distributor in the world is down near 6000th in the world, instead of being in the top 1000 websites. -- Kie ekzistas vivo, ekzistas espero.
