It didn't take as long as I expected.  I've added the XML file to CVS. I 
haven't made a
complete list of changes this time since there were far too many changes.  I 
have,
however, compiled a list of errata, footnotes and concerns:

sect24: "swifty" -> "swiftly" (errata)
sect28: Added "correct puzzle solution" footnote
sect51: "1 Pistol" -> "One Pistol" (errata - consistency)
sect57: "Swifty" -> "Swiftly" (errata)
sect74: "youself" -> "yourself" (errata)
sect99: "ammuntion" -> "ammunition" (errata)
sect112: Added missing period after "turn to 295" (errata)
sect145: "examing" -> "examining" (errata)
sect193: "suddeness" -> "suddenness" (errata)
sect213: "insepction" -> "inspection" (errata), "Landcrusier" -> "Landcruiser" 
(errata)
sect244: "iginitng" -> "igniting" (errata)
sect304: "HE Granade" -> "HE Grenade" (errata)
sect305: Added bold formatting to "Solar Torch", "Binoculars", "Rope" (errata)
sect312: Removed bold formatting from "Water Canteen" (errata)
sect322: "accorindly" -> "accordingly" (errata)
sect323: "turn 281" -> "turn to 281" (errata)
sect337: Added "puzzle" footnote

Replaced CSS bonuses in [] with () in sections: 51, 99, 105, 148, 215, 234, 
242, 305,
312, 322

Questions/Notes:
sect11: "soothe the inflamations", shouldn't this simply be "soothe the 
inflamation",
even if you have been stung several times?
sect41: "floorplan", should it be left unchanged or replaced with "floor-plan", 
"floor
plan"?
sect111: Should the weapon item checks include the CCS bonus to identify them 
as weapons
as in section 22? i.e. "Hammer (2)", "Baseball Bat (2)", "Fire Axe (3)"
sect125: "frustratedly" isn't a true word.  Should this be replaced with 
"frustrated",
i.e. "'It's no good,' you say, frustrated."
sect150: "gullys" vs "gulleys" (again)
sect171: "gunsmoke" is not a true word, leave as is, or replace with "gun 
smoke" ??
sect282: "undrawn" not a word, use "withdrawn"?  i.e. "a grenade, its pin 
withdrawn"
sect290: "poppings" not a word, use "popping"? i.e. "the distant popping of 
gunfire"

I've ran the converter over the XML and all the HTML pages appear to be 
generated, though
I've not ran through all sections to double-check yet.

My next plan is to go back and compile a full list of pending series-wide 
concerns,
including changes stemming from Jon's updated version of FW1.  From there I'll 
knock up a
to-do list, complete with topics which need discussion and go from there.

Iain.
