I can borrow a copy to do proofreading. Proofreading does not mandate
access to a hard copy. In fact, when doing translation, I prefer to
have a soft copy of the original (ie. the scanned picture) and the
current document I'm working with in parallel on the screen.
I have a flatbed and OmniPage.
Some formatting can be done with scripting. Patrick and Ken, we need to
make sure we're using Applescript, perl, and VBA to its full extent. In
the initial cleanup process, the text needs to be checked for
systematic changes that can be made in an automated fashion.
Then, this includes helping those keying in Greek and correcting the
Unicode markup how to set up macros, instead of doing repetitive things
the hard way.
I'd offer 30 gig storage, but my IP is not static, so folks would have
to contact me first. Perhaps you've a better solution there.
We need to think through the document format we're going to use: .rtf,
.doc, .pdf
IS Westar going to make the result Public Domain? Making it available
'freely accessible' is a tricky solution. I'd like to see the
Copyright/Copyleft notions they have in mind before I agree to pitch
for a project that may fund some of their other work.
