Re: my "continuous proofreading" demo

Not bad from my POV as I have found too many etexts are just unedited 
raw OCR output, unread by any human with an  interest in quality.  
Side-by-side presentation of a page of etext and image may be an 
excellent default view for nearly any scholarly or research-oriented 
material online.  UMichigan, for example, has put some excellent Middle 
English etexts up (http://www.hti.umich.edu/c/cme/browse.html) but you 
have to click around to get the page image in another window, and 
there's no provision for corrections--in fact, it's hard even to find an 
email address for a webmaster.

I'll pass these URLs along to some digital library and various scholarly 
folk and get some reaction.

Cheers,
