Subject: happy to help
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'd love to help with this process.  I have checked the forums, but also wanted 
to email directly.  I could do some OCR scanning.  I have LW 1-19, all 4 
greystar books and all 4 freeway warrior books.  Let me know if there's some 
way that I can help.

Hi Jeremy

Thanks for your offer of help. We are always in need of other volunteers 
helping out with Project Aon.

We have actually completed the OCR stage of the project, with all books having been scanned, proofread, and converted to XML. Our current work is therefore mostly editing, both preparing new books for publication (Wolf's Bane), as well as revising the text of books we have already published. We would welcome help with this part of the project.

Editors don't actually change the text of the book; they report potential problems that might require altering and these get discussed and accepted or rejected. If you feel you would like to help us with checking the books for errors, you should join the volunteers' mailing list: <http://www.projectaon.org/en/Sanctum/Howto-join> Once you have joined, you will see the ongoing discussions regarding reported issues and you can join in and/or post your own.

For Sommerlund and the Kai!
