I share his concern: we should IMO elaborate a plan/agenda to setup a publication platform (something like itunes for example)... and you?
I do too.
I'm following another french public domain ebooks project:
The leader of the project regularily sends announcements on the mailing list about finished books -- these announcements are my favorite readings as they contain small summaries, a list of contributors who accomplished the work, and other useful notes.
ebooksgratuits.com approach is IMO more compatible with our aims than Amazon. But the solution is really too primitive : for example, no localization of the UI, a show-stopper for us.
Yes. I didn't really think of _using_ ebooksgratuits.com as a publication platform -- just thought setting up a simple newsletter would help.
There is the international GLAM newsletter, the Research newsletter, having a "Wikisource" newsletter featuring interesting (finished) books would be awesome, even more with some editorial content.
