[HANASHIR:10859] Re: New Shabbat anthology

[Aura Ahuvia <progdir...>]

Joel,
Thank you for publishing this! I hope it is really complete, because I'd
like to order 100 copies for our congregation's sing-alongs when it's
published. Will it have melody lines? How long do you expect it to be? Will
it be spiral-bound for ease of use and durability? How will it compare with
the Reform movement's spiral-bound shiron (used at summer camps)?
Please put me on your mailing list for this publication (if I'm not on it
already)
Thanks, hope all's well. How's Howard?
