Hi Lindsay
Good suggestion about the assignments page. I'll look into it
in the next 48 hours.
About the content, if you add something and relinquish it, it stays. Our
philosophy
is that any contribution is something and the next person doesn't have
to start from
scratch. We can roll it back to the original version if it proves that
our philosophy is wrong :)
Intervention is easy.
Thanks for the suggestion, I might even do it now :)
Cheers,
Mark

Some notes on the assignments page:
The list of assignments is a litte unwieldy (a lot to scroll through)...I
assume that will probably look different when there are assignments up for
an entire book.
It's easy to click on a title and accidentally accept the assignment if
you didn't read the instructions carefully (ahem). (You can relinquish it
easily so there's really no harm done with this.)
A different layout could be a list of the assignment titles that you can
click on to get more information about that assignment. Then on that page
could be an option (button) to accept the assignment. That would make the
assignment page less daunting and would make it clear that an assignment
is being accepted.
On the same note, how does it work if an author starts an assignment and
then relinquishes it? Is the material they wrote wiped out or retained
for the next person to accept the assignment to use? I guess I could
answer these questions myself if I played around with the site a little
more.
Otherwise, the site looks very friendly and easy to use!
