In case anybody doesn't know, Fanfiction.net, home of just about all fanfic
talked about on these lists, has implemented a new organisational method for
chaptered stories. The FFN Staff have written a handy guide to chaptering,
which can be found at:

http://www.fanfiction.net/chaptering_guide.html

It's brilliant! However, it doesn't deal with what to do with
prologues/epilogues, what to do if you mis-import a chapter or any way to go
from, say, chapter 1/10 to 5/10 without scrolling through. Maybe they could
make a menu-bar out of it. ::looks hopefully at FFN staff who reside on
various lists::

I actually *like* this change. It means that the 13000 out of 14000 HP fics
which are pure fluff will have to reorganise themselves to a far smaller
number. Hooray!
