Hi Ed,
I'm sorry there was no answer yet.
I had hoped for someone to acknowledge my suggestion sooner, and say that it would take a while to evaluate. Thank you for doing so now.
No comments mean no one had the time to comment right now. I hope to find the time during christmas break. But I don't want you to assume all your suggestions are agreed upon. That said, you made certain good points and these will definitely be considered.
OK. That's in line with what I expected.
I agree with Steve, feel free to go on with Volume II.
Right, then. I will set up Vol. II and move the Squeak materials out of the Volume I draft. I will wait to hear whether splitting the tiles chapter is considered to be a good idea, and everything else concerning Vol. I.
Greetings, Rita
