Oh, I'm sorry, that's actually the unedited one.

Here is the correct link.

Hi Helen,

I'm really sorry about that. I must have missed those when I was checking the recording.

Here it is, again.

sect 3 Chapter 3

PL notes:
03:02 slight stumble,
06:29 slight stumble, then a repeated line "listening to the roar..."
09:35: incomplete sentence..(dialogue moves on).

Amy, at this point I stopped listening.
Amy, since you are new at recording, may I suggest listening to your recording before submitting it for PL

Hello,

I'm really really sorry about that. I guess it's just taking me longer than expected to get used to listening to and editing recordings correctly.

I've checked it again, so it should be good.

These are the same errors as last three times and I am stopping at the same place. However, now,
I am stepping down as DPL for this project.
Amy, you have my best wishes.

Hello,

I am really, really sorry about that. I think that something went wrong as I uploaded it. I fixed the mistakes, but perhaps, the edited recording did not get saved.

I have re listened to it now and edited it, so I really think it will be good this time.

Thanks for letting me know, Helen. I understand that you're no longer able to help with this project. Thank you for the help you have given!

Jo, how do I go about looking for a new DPL?

Thanks!

[b][color=blue]This solo project is looking for proof-listeners. A [url=http://librivox.org/wiki/moin.cgi/Glossary#d][u]DPL (Dedicated Proof Listener)[/u][/url] would be preferred, but until one is found we need PL for completed sections.[/color][/b]

[*][b]Level of PL[/b]: Standard 
[*][b]Please consider these points during proof-listening and comment on them as appropriate:[/b] 
[list][*]Do the intro and disclaimer match the instructions at the bottom of this post (below the magic window)? 
[*]Are there any long silences or pauses that ought to be edited out? If so, note the time. 
[*]Are there any stumbles or repeats that ought to be edited out? If so, note the words and the time. 
[*]Is there excessive background noise, a constant hiss or buzz that detracts from the reading? 
[*]Did you need to turn your volume up unusually high to listen to the recording? (Or did you find the recording too loud?) 
[*]Are the correct closing words used at the end of the recording (see instructions in the first post of the project thread, below the Magic Window)? 
[*]Are there 5 seconds of silence (10 if the recording is more than 30 minutes long) at the end of the file?[/list]
