That is mainly what this post is about. Ultimately we'd like to make an interoperable ecosystem of public domain texts, open metadata about these texts and intuitive open source tools to work with them - on the web or offline. This is precisely the motivation behind the TEXTUS project.</p> And I fully agree regarding interoperability. That is mainly what this post is about.

I absolutely agree. We aren't looking to develop a new transcription tool, but rather we'd like to build on existing best-of-breed components. We've already been in touch with Scripto, Transcribe Bentham, Wikisource, Distributed Proof Readers, and others. Your <a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AsXpm6NXLstzdExZZzhaclhIY1ZtMk5yazJlT1FReUE#gid=0" rel="nofollow">list</a> is very helpful indeed and I will forward it to others on the TEXTUS team.</p> Thanks for your reply Ben.
