One helpful step would be to assist the user to make a more informed decision. It should be possible to request the most recent eBook, or eBooks that have been submitted with a tuned version for a given platform, rather than one synthesized from another format. Since so many copies are acquired from secondary sources, it would be interesting to explore whether any of them would be interested in being directed to improved versions as they are posted, in a format congenial to their publication process.

Why should PG nominate one particular instance of a text as THE canonical version? PG has no particular expertise in textual criticism or literary studies.

Whether PG should or shouldn't, brief usage of the PG website will demonstrate that they do. Not sure how you display results on a web page without "nominating" one over the other? Randomize? _______________________________________________ gutvol-d mailing list gutvol-d@lists.pglaf.org http://lists.pglaf.org/mailman/listinfo/gutvol-d
