Tom, no I don't. Looks like you have put your hand up for this.

Well, a later email said '... need to be assessed in terms of
specifications: ie, page size, page extent, timetable, print run, retail
price ...'.

The usual, in other words.

Oxford is also thinking of Nov 2004 for the 'Study Dictionary' ms. to be

bit of a speedo for us if we get involved.

I'll copy further corro to the list.
