So I've not had a chance to try to read through the whole thing again, will try to do so in the near future. As for how to proceed...getting others to review this is going to be a bit of a challenge. Perhaps the right approach is to just merge the new document under a new name - reporting-bugs-the-novel.txt or something - then try to get a few people to look at specific parts of it? Once all seems well we can rename it over the old document and call it done. Make sense? Thanks, jon
