Prospective PLs, please see the Guide for Proof-listeners.

IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the number of languishing projects on our server, we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't recorded anything. If we don't hear from you for three months, your project may be opened up to a group project if a Book Coordinator is found. Files you have completed will be used in this project. If you haven't recorded anything yet, your project will be removed from the forum (contact any admin to see if it can be re-instated).

Please don't download or listen to files belonging to projects in process unless you are the BC or PL. Our servers are not set up to handle the greater volume of traffic. Please wait until the project has been completed. Thanks!

Hi, Ive had a bit of a problem with the project generator...it seemed to add ~SOLO to the title of the book every time and repeated the authors name..think Ive altered it now but.not sure what I did wrong! Also, is it possible to shorten the file name? cheers, Anne

Sorry Dave. I didn't see your initials on the thread title. I think we may have two entries. If you were planning to MC, either way is fine with me.
