Boy am I glad you said this. RL has been occupying me lately because I'm STILL
trying to find a new home and never know from one week to the next whether my
internet stays or goes. But I am determined to have some sort of internet
access whatever my circumstances and just as determined to stay the course.

I know the review process has been slow and probably flawed but no less
valuable. I haven't had much to contribute, but there's been real progress
over the last months, so I've been able to be patient about continuing the
coding. Even if RL has intruded, the catalogue is a lot cleaner now than when
we stopped for #6.

I think we need to take stock, get an overview to see what the review has
changed and what changes are going to be required from canon going forward. I
think there is such a thing as too much revision however, as we are trying to
resemble some sort of historical response with the catalogue, and I for one
don't want to go over the same ground because the later books changed a lot of
things.

Just my 2 knuts.

PS I am insanely jealous of Ginger for seeing Macca. I keep trying to find
video of him playing Blackbird so I can work out the chords!

ewe2, melting from the early summer humidity but with trusty beer in hand to
stave off heat exhaustion.
