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!

You are most welcome to PL this project Colleen. Thank you. And thank you to craidav1. I would like to mention however that I may have underestimated the completion time for this. It may be a little longer, we are talking weeks longer, not months. Please let me know if this is an issue.

Hi again Colleen. I just noticed a section numbering error in my first submissions. I have replaced the two uploads with new ones to make a correction. The times are (5:32) for section 1 (forward) and (12:08) for section 2 (chapter 1). I apologize if you have already started to listen to the first versions.

The numbers in the filenames should be 0-3 not 1-4 for the first four sections. The foreword is section 0 (the filename should have a 0) and thereafter the section numbers (used in the filename) and the chapter numbers will be the same.

No problem. I have never come across this. Shall I correct and resend them or leave as is?

Re-upload the files with the corrected filenames (numbers 0-3 in the filenames) and then correct the links in the MW (also to have 0-3 in the links).
