Hello everyone,
Today surroundx came with an idea to start an e-book created by the Sixth Extinction forum members.
Very honourable xylo! I was also thinking about the Sixth Extinction Forum members writing an e-book (in PDF) on extinct and missing species? With a few articles on extinction in general, as well as tables of the actual extinct species. It could be downloaded for free that way, and more people would be inlicned to read it. xylo's extinction symbol would make a very nice cover art too 
I too, like his idea very much!
I like that idea Surroundx! It is a great way to preserve and spread all the information collected here. And I will be able to publish it in Epub, DjVu, Daisy and Kindle as well. The ones with websites and the ones that are willing to participate can spread it through their websites.
I will think about how to do that together, probably with a wiki, so that everyone can edit. I have already a wiki (test version) online, that can be used/changed/edited for this idea. What do you think about this idea? And if someone has other ideas, lets hear!
That sounds great Peter!
This board is created to discuss this 'e-book project'. Let us know if you want to participate and give us your ideas!
