Hello. I would like to dispute a couple points in your message. First,
yes there is software currently in beta test which allows one to create
DAISY books. Just because it is uncommon doesn't immediately mean that it
is from an illegal or commercial source. Second, I would like to see the
elimination of .brf. It is inconvenient to convert to a usable format for
those without embossers or Braille displays and there is a far more likely
chance of an illegal brf being submitted because of NLS and web Braille
files. Unfortunately, MS Word is very common so .doc really needs to be
supported. I would like to see the system convert .doc to .rtf though
before the book gets to the validation pool.
