I didn't see the original of this; was it sent off-list ? and I agree. We need to identify someone within OUP who will listen to us. My last attempt to raise a related matter with OUP was met with complete and utter silence,  I sought permission to release the original word-division list to the TeX Hyphenation team, was told such a request had to be submitted in writing, did so, and heard no more. The SfEP is this outfit.  The Hon. Pres. is David Crystal and the twelve council members are listed here.  Do any of us know any of them? I regret (that I do) not. ** Phil.
