I don't think any of us have any problem with this. We will offer you
any help that we can, and you can feel free to use our formats and
technology.
I would like to propose something to you. I think it would be
beneficial to both Spanish- and English-speaking fans if both projects
merged. In other words, readers of Lone Wolf would be able to come to
one website to get both the Spanish and the English editions. We could
work together to help each other out. You might even be able to
translate from later English books that were never published in
Spanish. Were only the first 11 books published?
A couple of months ago, we started converting our website to a wiki.
We are not done yet, but have already labelled the new website as
English in the hope that Joe Dever would some day allow us to publish
other languages as well. Our future web address will be:
http://www.projectaon.org/en/Main/Home
You can already visit that address if you like. I propose that when
visitors come to projectaon.org, they be able to choose between
English and Spanish and you would be in charge of the Spanish portion
of Project Aon at the address:
http://www.projectaon.org/es/
I think we would both win under such a situation (and the readers
would win, too). Please let me know what you think.

We do not have a good estimate of when we will be finished. We still
have 16 more gamebooks to publish if you include Freeway Warrior. It
will take us a while for us to finish.
