Aiwendil: you are right re: keeping the stylistic harmonization as a seperate process, I always want to jump the gun.

I concur that we should do a straight textual editing [ along with the tense=-shifting]first [although as for the sytlistic editing that is somethiong I would be inclined to go at alone if need be just to see whatwould happen] as you recommend.

I tried to cut and paste all of the transition posts from page 2 of the FoG thread but I kept getting a prompt saying that we had html parantheses. Feel free to try a similar post your self.

I had already emailed Ron [ I think it went through so you may notice your status and powers change.] Maybe you can give it a try.

My idea was to have a discussion thread based on the individual changes, and then have a seperate thread where the text would be posted w/out comment for folks to read.

I imagine that we will just have to post re-edited versions of each of the proposed changes [ due to html tags].

Maybe you have a streamlined idea ?

Any word from jallanite?
