Re: A project ~~~~Revising the Fall of Gondolin

hmm, maybe everyone [but telchar ]is on vacation?

I propose that we begin a few things w/ actual work on the texts:
I> begin inserting Jallanite's revisions into the Lost Tales version. then vote on the changes he felt were more questionable.

II> Work on the difficult interchange between the UT and LT/77/IV versions where Tuor gives his message and see's the city etc. I propose calling this section 'the changeover' or ' CO' as I imagine reference to it will occur frequently for awhile.

III> dividing the LT version into sections according to the previously given outline [pengolodh's ? Aiwendil's?] inserting the later material as needed, in rough form.

For each of the sections above 1-3 I suggest there be one or if more are interested 2 leaders , 1 of whom does the posting on the TFE forum [and will be the editor ] they will create the rough material that when finished we can all [sect. IV] make proposals and vote on ammendments.

IV> go over everything / a fine tooth comb as above.

Sound workable?
Better idea's?
Want to head up a section?
