No, there is not a set date. We are making changes now based on comments we have received from those using the pre-publication release. Then those files go to the people who put it into the html accessible searchable version. That process is fairly intensive and will take some time. The BANA Publications and Formats committees are working as quickly as possible.

This is an error in the pre-publication document. It will be fixed before final publication. End of Volume indicators should be enclosed in transcriber's note indicators.

There are no hard and fast rules about the sneak peek...but my suggestion would be to include it. Follow print for the page numbering. Do a transcriber's note letting the reader know what it is and why the page numbering change.
For you second paragraph, you are correct, the copyright symbol is no longer required on the Special Symbols page.
Cindi (for Julie)
Yes, you are correct about 8.3.5d - an item in a simple list should not be divided between braille pages...if it requires a runover, the whole item should be moved to the next braille page.
8.3.5b says that a list may begin on the 24th line of a braille page as long as it fits on one braille line. That leaves the 2nd item in the list on line 25.
8.3.5c just says that you may not BEGIN a list on line 25...there must be at least two list items on the braille page.
I do not see 8.3.5b and 8.3.5c as contradictory.

After much deliberation and discussion, we are (mostly) agreed that the passage would need to be terminated and restarted after the footnote.
Thanks for being patient. Sorry it took so long!

I've answered your questions in red on the attached document. Let me know if you need more clarification or have more questions.
Cindi
My suggestion is to do a nested list format. Put the menu items (using emphasis as shown in print) in 1-5 and then put the personal column in 3-5 and the calzone/stromboli column in 3-5. Do a TN explaining this change to the print format.
Cindi
This is an already identified error in BF 2016. The rule is stated in 2.10.3b and the samples are all incorrect as the tn indicators did not get inserted. This will be corrected before the final version is published.
Cindi
This is an excellent question...and I will need to seek other advice. So give me a day or two and I will get back to you!
Cindi
I'm sorry that I did not see your follow up question.
The technically correct format is to insert page numbers where they fall - even if they interrupt text.
Cindi
The file did not come through. Will you please send it to me via my personal email: cindilaurent@yahoo.com (Julie is out of contact for awhile).
Cindi
My question is, when there is a caption followed by a source citation does the source citation still get followed by a blank line if the format following the caption with source citation does not require a blank line before ie. a tabbed paragraph?
My answer (I copied your main question from the attachment): Yes. The source still requires a blank line following it if it is followed by a paragraph.
Cindi
I'm attaching the document with my comments, but basically with UEB you should follow print...that includes for spacing, punctuation and roman numerals. After saying that, know that agency decisions can be made to do things differently. But with the onset of UEB, following print is one of the main philosophies.
