Gone for a bit and look.....

&quot;Impressive , very impressive.&quot;

I will be up 1/2 the night trying in vai to catch up w/ all this . wonderful!

A quick note , further perusal of the F&amp;M question re: DoV reveals that JRRT had in mind some strange conglomerate title for 5 or so chapters of the Silm. that he called DoV as they were effected by the new material he was creating . But for our purposes we may want tostickw/ the77 chapter and it's new additions [and it's possible MT deletions <img src=smile.gif ALT=""> ]

It seems bits of F&amp; M will need to be included but the core of it will as you mentioned Mithadan belong earlier .
In all honesty HoV may turn out to be almost as big an undertaking as FoG. I will endeavor to cathch up on all that has been posted this Aft/eve and then get a more solid grip on DoV in terms of sections to work on.

Saulotus , your idea re: using the home # system is good .
Are all the versions in agreement from IV on? I havn't read much ofit w/ that eye.


Durelen, I have no way to get any missing books to you as I have no scanner , but if the reference of saulotus was to the peices of his private canon I can email those.

"What then was this hope , if you know ?" Finrod asked "They say" answered Andreth :" they say that the One will himself enter into Arda , and heal Men and all the Marring from the begining to the end." Lindil is often found on posting on the New Revised Silmarillion at the Barrowdowns discussion board. </p>
