I think we probably should keep stylistic editing separate for now. I'm torn between a desire to even out the discrepancy between UT and BoLT and a desire not to tamper with Tolkien's words. I think at the very least we should eliminate all use of the historical present, but probably not much more than that. However, I think this issue should be dealt with later, once the other changes are made.
About the moderator business: it's really not important and needn't matter unless I have to edit a lot of text. I'm still not completely sure how we're actually going to post the revision, so I don't know whether that'll be a problem.
Enjoy your new computer.
