"Links" cc license?
I don't see any evidence the following entry is actually licensed. The "CC-licensed version" points to another book.

PDFs
Most books here are only available in the PDF format. And I don't like PDFs! I prefer HTML or even better, FB2. Does anyone know a good, free software tool to convert PDF into something else? I tried pdftohtml but it not great at all... guaka 21:22, 14 September 2007 (EDT)
Collection
It would be nice to spread a whole bunch of these books in one file (or several). I might create one myself :) guaka 14:08, 16 September 2007 (EDT)
Summaries
We should allow for short summaries on the individual book page. guaka 16:43, 17 September 2007 (EDT)
Sorting by author
I'm trying, using the Ontoworld documentation, but it doesn't really work:
<ask format="table" limit="3" mainlabel="Title" sort="author" order="ascending"> [[genre::Fiction]] [[author:=*|Author]] </ask>
gives <ask format="table" limit="3" mainlabel="Title" sort="author" order="ascending">
genre::Fiction Author

Disappeared books?
The books have disappeared. I added mine back, but does anyone know what happened to the others?
