PACKS Proofing, Calling all anal retenative rules lawyers... Options

[Ancient History]

Okay, PACKS has been well received (over 800 downloads!), but I had to proof it myself - I couldn't even use the proofing done by Catalyst's proofers because I was banned from the forums and Basecamp. Still, I've received a very generous offer on the part of Platinum to actually lay PACKS out and make a nice product out of it. So what I would like from those of you willing to participate are a list of the mistakes and suggested corrections for PACKS. Anybody that submits a correction that gets used will have their name (if you want to PM it to me) or handle included in a list of proofers on the final document.

Anybody game?

I'm going to keep a master list running in this first post.
