I said this to Jack on the phone yesterday, and I'll repeat it here.
Let's route around this. You could conceivably layout an entire book
with stubs of certain photos that you want in certain places without
actually having any of those photos. Selecting the actual photo and
getting a release form could be the *last* thing that we do and doesn't
have to be the first.
Sounds good.
If anybody has any mockups they wanna go for, please submit
them. Or any ideas at all for page design. I'm all ears :D
I say let's move this project ahead. Jack, do we have a roadmap
for all
the things that are needed to make this project happen yet? Let's get
it up on the wiki page and then work off of it.
I've got a roadmap in my head somewhere without any dates on it. From
what I've learned in the past few months on this list, here's what I
envision, in some sort of vague order:
* Approve mockup of page designs
* Compile images and stories
* Place images and stories in book
* Proof stories for typography and content
* Pressure FPL to write foreword
* Approve photo placement
* Create index of people in back
* Other last-minute checks
* CMYK-ify PDFs
* Publish
* ???
* Profit!
No way in hell we're getting this done by F11 so F12 Beta is my target
for being published right now.
