Subject: [WHITNEY-L] Pierce Transcription Project 50%!
Date: Thu, 25 Mar 1999 21:06:32 -0600


Tomorrow marks the two month anniversary of the start of
our Pierce Transcription Project. I am happy to announce
that we have just reached the 50% completion point! Here
is a breakdown of where we stand:

67 (50%) Complete
50 (38%) Being transcribed
5 ( 4%) Ready for adoption (photocopied)
5 ( 4%) Ready for adoption (scanned)
4 ( 3%) Being scanned
2 ( 1%) Being photocopied

For those of you who are scanning or photocopying, please
finish up soon as we're running out of sets to assign. If
you don't think you can get to it soon, let me know as I
have other scanning volunteers ready to go.

If you're interested in volunteering and have been holding
off, better act quickly! There are only 16 sets not yet
adopted by other volunteers. If anyone wants to re-enlist
for another set, please let me know!

If you are currently transcribing, keep up the good work.
Sets continue to roll in and we're making great progress.

If you volunteered for a set and are having second thoughts,
please let me know so I can assign your set to someone
else. I won't be mad - I promise.

I'll probably be sending out emails to certain individuals
this weekend. There are some people who have been assigned
sets for nearly two months that I haven't heard anything
from. I want to make sure that my original email assigning
the sets weren't lost somehow.

Thanks to everyone who has volunteered. We're making
excellent progress and we should all be proud of the job
we've done!
