Many thanks Allan, all yours. And welcome to LibriVox too.

Don't forget to check out the reading instructions in the first post of this thread, and if there's any other questions just ask.

Cheers,
Carl.

Starlite, nice job on Sec 14 - it's OK to catalog!

I'd like to volunteer for section 7 (chapter 5). This will be my first recording. I may have to brush up on some of my Greek alphabet, but it looks doable.

Thanks both, and a very warm welcome to LibriVox.

If you need help with the Greek, there are a few members who should be able to help, so just ask and I'll point you in their direction.

Cheers,
Carl.

I've noticed that the MeadProject version had problems with OCR on the greek letters - most of them are completely ignored! Google books has a scanned version available online http://books.google.com/books?id=mBvNabP35zoC

I assume it's fine if I use the scanned version to fill in the gaps in the OCR version. Would it make sense to link to the scanned version somewhere here too, or to make it our "official" text? (Edit: forget that... As I look more closely, the two translations are very different, and it's too late to switch now.)

Thanks,
Alex

ps- p81 is where this first becomes a serious issue for me, as he makes heavy use of alpha, beta, and gamma.

Also, does anyone have an email address for the Mead Project for sending corrections? On their home page they ask for people to send corrections, but I searched high and low and found not a single contact email address.
