Dear all,

The Institute for Documentology and Scholarly Editing (IDE) is happy to announce the launch of a new review journal, RIDE. We aim to make digital editions and resources more visible and to provide a forum in which expert peers can evaluate and discuss the efforts of digital editors in order to improve current practices and advance future developments. It will do so by asking its reviewers to pay attention not only to the traditional virtues and vices of any edition, but also to the evolving methodology and its technical implications.

We would like to bring RIDE to the attention of GO:DH readers, as the first issue includes a review of a Portuguese digital edition (Leal Conselheiro). The most reviews of the first issue are written in German and are completed by an English abstract as well as a well strucutred factsheet of each reviewed digital edition.

You can access all reviews at: http://ride.i-d-e.de

You can find out more about the ideas behind RIDE, our methods and intentions, in the Editorial at: http://ride.i-d-e.de/about/editorial/
