Howdy,

What do you all think of the idea of folks "signing up" to be "gleaners"
of various of Beam's works as a means of dividing up the effort to put
together the on-line concordance/cyclopedia?  In other words, someone
volunteers to be a "gleaner" for a particular story and then pulls all
the background material and submits it.  We might have "coordinating
gleaners" responsible for a particular book with "gleaners" for each
story (for anthologies) or chapter.

This would allow us to cover all the material without duplicating efforts
while allowing each person to work at their own pace.

Geoff, Nathan, anyone else: Do we have the technical bells and whistles in
place yet for folks to start submitting this sort of material?
