 This is the Project Gutenberg 1.1 release of
The Federalist Papers

Due to an error in file transfer the 1.0 version was decapitated
of all but the first section of the five sections we received in
which the following information was contained in various mark-up
formats and various footnoting conventions.  You may note in the
middle portion that the footnotes are different, and indentation
is practically non-existent.  We hope to have this fixed in only
a week or so, as we are requesting new copies from which to work
and we are also requesting a scholarly review of this file, from
Tom Horton (one of the requestors of the file. . .Tom. . .help--
are you out there).  So, please bear in mind that while editions
from Project Gutenberg are not supposed to be authoritative, our
expectations are to provide you with documents that are at least
internally consistent.  Therefore, the next release or two would
be in hopes of clearing this up immediately.

My personal apologies to those who require them.  I have edited,
and edited, but find myself at the point of diminshing returns.

Hopefully at that is in error is that I received an inconsistent
collection of file portions and the correct file(s) will be sent
shortly.  Otherwise I have to rely on Federalist scholars to see
what I cannot see in the middle fifth of this file, and correct,
send to me, and advise on the preparation of later version.

As mentioned in the August 31 newsletter, we have several files,
each of various editions of The Federalist Papers, but this one,
such as it is, was okayed for release.  The others are still in,
shall we say, a state of limbo.
