The Return of Tarzan

This project is now complete. All audio files can be found on our catalog page: http://librivox.org/the-return-of-tarzan-by-edgar-rice-burroughs/

IMPORTANT - soloist, please note: in order to limit the amount of languishing projects (and hence the amount of files on our hard-pressed server), we ask that you post an update at least once a month in your project thread, even if you haven't managed to record anything. If we don't hear from you for three months, your project will be opened up to a group project as soon as a Book Coordinator can be found. Files you have completed will be used in this project. If you haven't recorded anything yet, your project will be removed from the forum (contact any admin to have it re-instated).

Excellent! Sarah usually takes care of the box, is that right? In that case I will substitute, though if one of the two of you would like to do it you are welcome to. (That way I couldn't forget. :))

I will catch up with the PLing of the other project first before starting this one, but just to let you know I am around. :)

And yes, Sarah usually takes care of the MW, but I can do it too, if you don't mind.

Thanks, Leni! If you will manage the box then I can just leave this to the two of you until cataloging time. :) Unless you need anything else, of course.

No problem at all, Laurie Anne.

No extra work is too much work for the priviledge of listening to Ralph's recordings! :mrgreen:

By the way, the other Tarzan project is all PL'ed, ready to be cataloged.

Section 1 is PL OK.
