 I cannot open this URL...is it operator malfunction or access?

Thanks, Don

Hi Hans

I think this would be great as a supplement to the list -- and I take it
that's the way you intend it, not as substituting for it. It  'archives' it
as a resource for the future -- it is already archived of course, but this
systematises it in  a form that some will prefer.

I'm not sure how aligning the discussion with paragraphs is going to work,
as most contributions cover more than one para and sometimes the whole book
and beyond... Wouldn't this tend to fragment the discussion? I'd suggest
aligning discussion to the whole chunk of text posted.

Mervyn
