Welcome, Miles! and a couple of thoughts...
Glad to have you aboard, my friend.
I think this is where we ought to cap it though (membership: 6). As you mentioned, Mix, that gives us each two months a year. I am fairly bursting at the seams to release my second volume and I for one, think that having my wait be any longer would suck. I also think we may be approaching a point at which our interwoven comments are starting to get slightly hard to follow. Three new posts come in while the fourth post back is still waiting on comments, and maybe a thread from the final commentary on the last volume is still active. To that end, I'm wondering if Mighty Tom & T-Clog might consider offering all their comments in a single batch (they may not be aware that they can save drafts of their commetnary to publish at a time of their choosing).
And Mixdorf, will you be giving us SIWHI suggestions?

If it really strikes me I might give siwhi suggestions, though I'm not going to force it. If I feel that vibe, I'll get it out. If not, it remains at home.
How about a SIAI for your next release?
What's SIAI again?
Oh, I remember....
Song I almost included...
Maybe....statring to feel like the football picks with its bows and other miscellaneous acronyms.
Gibbs' intent, wihout a doubt.
He misses his role as The Commissioner.
I am currently doing just that. I have one going for Mixdorf, Dan, and Arron. I will get those out as soon as possible. I agree with the cap of 6.
What are you doing?
SIWHIs I think.
There is a way, in the settings, to have it notify you if there's a comment, though I don't think that it will tell you if there is a post.
I like the idea of standardizing: Volume 3: Minnesota Connections, Dan's Comments on Minnesota Connections, etc., but I've learned through the years that people get annoyed by me getting too amped-up about ground rules & organization. I'm like Ralph from Lord of the Flies, constantly grappling with a group of English schoolboys on the verge of ararchy.
IN this I will side with those for being more organized.
There may be another way, but it would take someone smarter (or more inclined towards programming) to figure it out. Something called 'book blogs' or 'multiblogs' where a single page can contain multiple blogs. It seems like we could establish a separate blog for each volume even if this doesn't work and keep it simple, though more administratively annoying.

God, that looks complicated.
Yeah.
As an introductory hazing (as if wading through Mighty Tom's posts wasn't bad enough) maybe Miles could explore that a bit more. He's very blog programming savvy, having created one himself, from scratch (stealing code as necessary).
www.milesenglish.com (though it's been a long time seince he updated it)
He should get along well with Aaron, then.
