					<description>yes but it would be nice to catalogue all public domain audio freely available online ... ie all these audio projects, UAA, Telltale Weekly, Librivox etc. if gutenberg deems librivox recordings of sufficient quality, then it would be great if they would link to them (or host em). seems to me that varrying quality audio recordings are better than none, which is what I think is cool about LibriVox. 

been a bit busy of late, but hope in a couple of weeks to be able to give more effort to the project.</description>

					<description>I don't know about a well-organized catalogue, but Project Gutenberg already lets you browse the human-read works in their catalogue at http://www.gutenberg.org/browse/categories/1</description>

					<description>hello steve,

yes I've seen Telltale, and there are a few others out there doing similar stuff (though telltale seems to be the most professional). I think we're the first to try to do this open source though! ... anyway, my intention is to get the ball rolling and contact all these other folks, many of whom I have already contacted. One thing I would like to see is a searchable, well-organized catalogue of freely available audio literature, with everyone's stuff linked. And ideally everything we do is donated to anyone who wants it (gutenberg? spokenalex etc)...

so: will you read a chap in the next book?</description>

					<description>Very cool idea!  I'm subscribing now, and look forward to listening to this over the next few days.  

I'm curious whether you've seen Alex Wilson's &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.telltaleweekly.org&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;TellTale Weekly&lt;/a&gt; site -- he's also working on building a library of audiobooks from the public domain, but he's going about it in a somewhat different manner.  You might contact him to see how your projects could cooperate; he's a great guy and very receptive to ideas on community efforts.  I've been in contact with Alex regarding collaboration on &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.escapepod.info&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;my own podcast&lt;/a&gt;, which narrates contemporary short fiction under license.

Good luck!  Sounds to me like you'll have a lot of fun doing this.</description>
