4) What are best steps for scaling bigger in your
experience - eg working with multiple editors, graduate students as
editors, +?
5) How could WUaS be of help to Inner Light Books ?
WUaS is seeking to become a kind of great multilingual Academic Press in the sense of esp. the Grateful Dead.
Thank you!
Scott
