For the Spanish translation of <i>Make Your Own Sugar Activities!</i> each translator was assigned chapters and was given credit in a footnote for that chapter.<br><br>I had <i>About The Authors</i> chapters in my books. What was lacking was author credit on the title page and on the cover. I made my own covers for the CreateSpace versions which corrected that. For <i>E-Book Enlightenment</i> Rebecca Malamud had a "Virtual Book Signing" where she made 50 front covers for the book (which she published with her own equipment). She shipped the covers to me for my signature and I signed them and shipped them back. Everyone else who worked on publishing that book signed the covers too. When I made the CreateSpace cover I used a scan of her book covers, complete with signatures, so the CreateSpace version has the signatures too.<br>

just to follow up on this with a couple of stories. They don't really<br>
require a response but thoughts or similar situations would of interest<br>
tome.<br>
<br>
I was involved in open web book and Adam wrote some really meaningful<br>
credit in about this book chapter.<br>
<a href="http://en.flossmanuals.net/an-open-web/about-this-book/" target="_blank">http://en.flossmanuals.net/an-open-web/about-this-book/</a><br>
That's really detailed and one end of the spectrum. Thanks Adam.<br>
<br>
Another perspective is the Basic Internet Security which I've been<br>
resusing the Thunderbird and Enigmail chapters but I'm not really sure<br>
who to credit, who to thank or who to get Mozilla to sent a Thunderbird<br>
T-shirt too. I found this page, but individual chapters are not<br>
credited. I want to share the attribution a bit more specifically rather<br>
than just pointing to this chapter which lists the participants.<br>
<a href="http://en.flossmanuals.net/basic-internet-security/index/" target="_blank">http://en.flossmanuals.net/basic-internet-security/index/</a><br>
<br>
Now I know that Sacha is on this list, so I can ask him and Adam if they<br>
remember - "Hey who wrote that bit, I want to give them credit and get<br>
them a T-shirt." But someone outside of this social loop wouldn't be<br>
able to do that.<br>
<br>
nice one<br>
