Hello Timothy,

My vote, being a lazy lout, would be to amalgamate them into one file to reduce my having to look up material in three indices (i.e the 3rd edition index, the addenda and then the additions). Of course I have trouble setting up the search criteria even in the 3rd edition but at least having them in one file I won't have to look in all of them.

Greetings

I've been 'tidying up' my 2018/2019 additions to The Traveller Bibliography.  It's very close to being good to go.  It comes in around 50 pages including the usual indexes for author, publisher and title.

I also have a file of addenda (pre-2018) and corrections to the bibliography 3rd edition which is around 30 pages (including index additions).

In other words the first file is what would get added to any potential 4th edition.

The second file is really the revisions applicable to the 3rd edition (old stuff I've found since publication etc plus any corrections/errata).

In my head there's no reason why, were I to persuade Andy to publish the above, they couldn't be amalgamated into one file which would reduce looking up material in three indices (i.e the 3rd edition index, the addenda and then the additions).

However, amongst those who care, is there anyone that can see any advantage in keeping the 3rd edition material (plus its addenda and corrections) separate and a distinct item completely apart from the new material?

Just thinking out loud and I'm guessing no one cares *that* much!
