I am sure, has I been publishing a document (as I do every day) I would have taken a few moments to spell check and correct errors.Badmike - I have always offered to work for free. Both cartography and proofreading. I don't think they are serious about it, or care that much. They run ads like that every so often.As I see it, they only need ONE person to proofread something and ONE person to correct setout. Inconsistencies and ambiguities should have been picked up by the playtesting. Then the additional or clarified text added, and finally someone should have gone through every page looking for spelling mistakes and poor grammer. And even poor grammer is tolerable if the words are complete and correct.

"GB, I really appreciate all the hard you guys did putting this long project together, however upon reviewing it, I believe that there were some editing/proofreading errors in it that may have been overlooked in the process. I would love to be able to work on potentially removing some of these errors that I believe were overlooked and I will happily work at no charge as yourself and others have done through this long process, on the simple contingency that if I do do it, that you will give it a fair look as a viable corrected version for download once it's completed by me. Let me know what you think"

With that said, DF is calling on folks to offer their services, for free none-the-less:http://www.dragonsfoot.org/forums/viewt ... 45&start=0So feel free to offer your time and make things better for the next release, so it's not substandard. Based on the some of these angry posts, I'll expect to see several offers to help, right?

and WoTC can come down any time they want. Maybe they will just let it go, which is most likely.
