E-book site restructuring

Has MobileRead considered making a separate category for the epub format in the e-books section (rather than having it under 'miscellaneous') to encourage use of what is open standard?

hi wchris, we did not make an epub section previously because there were very few people making epub books, however i agree with you that it is very important to encourage the use of epub and with the increasing number of creation tools available i am sure we will see the number of epub uploads grow.

i agree that it is a good idea to have a dedicated epub section and i've mentioned it to alex. however, he does have quite a long "to-do" list so he may not have time to do this right away.

thank you very much for bringing it up.
