I'm curious if anyone is interested in working on an open-source electronic/print edition of the Canterbury Tales. I often teach broad literature courses and try to include Chaucer, but I don't like requiring students to purchase a whole book just for a couple tales. I've started to make my own e-book (.mobi, .epub) and print-ready (.pdf) files, with my own notes and introductions, so my students have access to the same edition in whatever format works best for them. I'm planning to put both the files and the source (TEI P5 XML and LaTeX) online, but I was wondering if others would find an expanded Chaucer project useful. If working on or using an open-access and open-source e-book and print-ready version of the Canterbury Tales is of interest, please email me at vaughnrs@email.unc.edu.
