Type of proof-listening required: See the FAQ in the Listeners/Editors Wanted forum for information, and copy from there the description of the type of proof-listening needed for this project.

IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the amount of languishing projects (and hence the amount of files on our hard-pressed server), we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't managed to record anything. If we don't hear from you for three months, your project will be opened up to a group project as soon as a Book Coordinator can be 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 have it re-instated).

MAGIC WINDOW:

(Window admin)
The reader will record the following at the beginning and end of each file:

- If you wish, say:
  "Recording by [your name]"
- Say:
  "Jungle Tales of Tarzan, by Edgar Rice Burroughs. Chapter [number], [chapter title]."
For the second and all subsequent sections, you may optionally use the shortened form of this intro disclaimer:
- "Chapter [number] of Jungle Tales of Tarzan. This LibriVox recording is in the Public Domain.
- If you wish, say:
  "Recording by [your name]"
- Say:
  "Jungle Tales of Tarzan, by Edgar Rice Burroughs. Chapter [number], [chapter title]."

- If you wish, say:
  "Recording by [your name], [city, your blog, podcast, web address]"
- At the end of the book, say (in addition):
  "End of Jungle Tales of Tarzan, by Edgar Rice Burroughs."
There should be 5 seconds silence at the end of the recording, or 10 seconds for files longer than 30 minutes.

Thanks.

Just passing by --
http://upload.librivox.org/uploads/pw/jungletalesoftarzan_01_burroughs.20090113175740.mp3
Uploader weirdness of some sort. That's the only Section 1 in there. Usually it renames like that only when a replacement file is uploaded. I think this happens from time to time.

PaulW · Post by **PaulW** » January 13th, 2009, 9:46 pm

Thanks for the assist, Laurie Anne. Yeah, the uploader does sometimes hiccup and add the date/time stamp the the end of a filename even when it isn't replacing a file. I'll rename the file when I get a chance and fix all the links.

And we're off to Going Solo!

Thanks for the help!

Section 1 is PL OK.

Hmm... I think my notifications are broken again. Anyway, MW is updated now. Paul, hope you don't mind - I went into your folder and renamed the file.

Not at all...I really should go into the database and make you the MC, and move the files into your folder.

But we'll leave things as they are. Feel free to rename or do whatever else is necessary with files...except deleting them!

smijen · Post by **smijen** » January 22nd, 2009, 1:23 am

Hee hee... you know I never delete anything without asking you to back it up first!

Well, almost never...

(Ralph and Leni - Paul and I have very different philosophies about back-ups.

Hello there

I just wanted to leave a message saying I'm having some problems visiting LV - not because of LV, but because I (finally!) moved, and, in the middle of all the confusion and drama of going from one city to another with husband, kid and a truckload of things, I still don't have internet installed in my house.

If all goes well, it will be installed at some point before Friday. I downloaded the new section and will listen to it, but I'd like to apologize for the delay already

since I don't know when I'll post the PLing notes. As soon as possible, I promise!

smijen · Post by **smijen** » January 25th, 2009, 10:07 pm

Nice to hear from you, Leni. Don't worry about LV. Real life does tend to get in the way sometimes...

I have several moving horror stories of my own, so I can totally sympathize. And isn't it terrible how life falls apart when there's no internet access?
