We would be delighted to have you joy.
Definetly first on the reading list [ for this particular project] is BoLT 2's Fall of Gondolin and the HoME4's Q30 Gondolin chapter [ the basis for the chapters in 'The Silmarillion'].
After or along with that would go the same general advice we have been giving above.
the ** threads are the essential one's but feel free to go to the source threads [ as per the advice to Lanwe Fea above] if the terminology is confusing.
There is a good project for someone willing;
a guide to abbreviations.
The only problem is we have been less than 100% consistent ourselves.
Still if someone wants to undertake an exploration of the abbreviations used in the **official project** threads and compile them in a new thread we can comment on it and add it to the FAQ section.
It woill probably help us standardize a bit more. Of course maybe it is OK to use MR or HoME 10 interchangeably...
Joy - PM me whenever you are ready to take the full plunge [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
