Another buzzing project! 🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝
I think I`ll take a look in here around 07.15; if there will not be a DPL here and one will still be wanted, I suppose I`ll be able to charge myself of it. We`ll see) 🎆

Ok, I've added HandmadePSK as DPL. I didn't add him originally since his post suggested he wasn't ready to jump on board just yet.

I'll no doubt be a worker bee on this project. (I am not queen material.)

I`m afraid I`ve been misunderstood. I`m indeed not ready to jump on board just now, for I`m taking exams, therefore am busy.
I suppose I could be a DPL here only after the 07.15 - if there will not be one another yet.
So, please, cancel me from that for now. 🍒

Okay, sorry for not catching on to that. So, Jo can take you off and we'll see if someone else wants to step forward. Thanks so much for you help with the previous issue. :D

I have a question - everything here says September 1873, but the source document is dated September 1870. Which should I use for the introduction?

Thanks.

Ah, good catch!
There is an error in the Gutenberg text.
At the beginning of the etext it is listed as 1873, which is where I must have copied from. But, this is clearly 1870. I've now changed that date in all the places I can, but Jo will have to change the main URL title for us.

Thanks so much for the alert!
