Dear Dave and all,
I have a few suggestions that, I believe, would make the
editor's life easier and the interaction much more
efficient.
1- All contributors submit their material in plain text, not in
formatted Word documents. This would involve copy/paste work for the editor,
which is much easier than fixing formatting inconsistencies in
Word.
2- Editor provide a .pdf file of the latest revision with line
numbers restarting on each page.
3- Contributors refer to Section number, Page number, and Line
number, in this order, and give clear instructions as to what they want to be
done to the text.
4- Let's follow IEEE's Style Manual directions for giving
instructions to the editor. I quote from the manual:
QUOTE
The
editing instructions are shown in bold italic. Four editing
instructions are used: change, delete, insert,
and replace. Change
is used to make small corrections in existing text or tables.
The editing instruction specifies the
location of the change and describes what is being changed by using
strikethrough (to remove old material) and underscore (to
add new material). Delete removes existing material. Insert
adds new material without
disturbing the existing material. Insertions may require renumbering. If so,
renumbering instructions are given in
the editing instruction. Replace is used to make large changes in existing text, subclauses, tables, or figures by removing existing material and
replacing it with new material. Editorial
notes will not be carried over into future editions because the changes
will be incorporated into the base
standard.
