I've started collection data for an online "ABC books" database. It's
meant to include all the complete books (printed and manuscripts) that
have been or are being transcribed into ABC. Other large-scale
transcription projects might also be included.

Anybody who has information about this should e mail it to me in
private. The datafields I currently use are:

Title
Author
URL
Transcriber
Status  [OK/temproray edition/in progress]
Info [about the book]
Comments
Nationality
Year [of the original, not the ABC transcription]

The database is pretty open, though. It's possible to leave some fields
blank, and  additional fields will be added if necessary
