Well, heck:

First few minutes of Theo's installment today was slightly confused and slightly late -- the cover proofs for Liaden Universe Companion #2 are in house, having arrived right around the launch time ... and needing to sign and then to show them off (with trepidation) to the FEDEX guy who is a fan ...

So I came back after interruption to launch Theo, which I decided to do manually since the last time I tried the auto-upload we glitched. So, we glitched today with the first two attempts ... from the wrong folder. Distracted 'R Us.

Meanwhile,
I think after consideration that we could actually use a glitchwiki type page to fix the growing number of minor errors/typos/goof-ups attaching themselves to the Fledgling site. Mmaybe we need an actual glitchwiki, I don't know. Thoughts? do we need a page for each chapter or just a thread here for each 5 chapters?

I'm behind schedule on several things today and need to look at the proofs besides, so I may not get back here until tomorrow, but your thoughts on a glitchwiki are welcome.

....
Also meanwhile, it is a wonderfully pretty day outside, my lunch is cooking, and I need a clear head to stare at the proofs with. Perhaps we'll get several sets of eyes on this if we can...

Wheee.......

several sets of eyes

Are you planning to grow extra eyes? Or was that a general call for volunteers? If it's the latter, I would be happy and honored to help.
Let me know.

it was a call for discussion ... volunteers are how wiki-type things work, after all

I don't know how a glitchwiki would work (is that a real thing?), but if you think us finding glitches will help you then it sounds like a good thing.

I tried to post a comment, but it seems to have gone astray. So, if it shows up late and out of breath, don't blame me...I'm doing my best!

Back to the subject at hand: would a glitchwiki allow readers to directly correct obvious oversights such as spelling (Halfey for Hafley, etc.)? Or would it work on an input basis: 'Thus and such on line x was misspelled; it should be y'? Just curious, and very willing to help.

I think the second choice -- by chapter, using the searchable 5 word method, with correction the third word

Hypotheatrical example:

is: theo hit wangchung in the
sb: theo hit Win Ton in the

or

is: Kamele ate sixtreen chocolate ants
sb: Kamale ate sixteen chocolate ants

We ought to be able to do somethign like that in Fledgling/ Theo_Waitely LJ community.

Certainly willing to lend a set of eyes to that project.
