Well, it looks like Lindil is trying to recruit even more people for the new Silm. project! The only threads that you seem to post on are ones that relate to editing of the Silm! Anyway, the Silmarillion is a book written by JRRT and edited and compiled by CRRT after his father's death, which means that there are bound to be some errors and inconsitencies. If you have the guts and the time, try piecing together the Legendarium for yourself from Unfinished Tales, the History of Middle-Earth, and including a little bit of the Silmarillion we have now.

And, at the risk of sounding like a jackass since I just ridiculed Lindil for this, if anyone wants to help build a new Silmarillion using HoME and UT, along with the Letters, come to the "Translation from the Elvish" forum down at the bottom of the main forum page and see what we've been doing. Feel free to join in if you want.
