Hey everyone! As an avid reader of classics, I’d like to try my hand at helping out this excellent project. I’ve read quite a few of Joseph Conrad’s novels but not this one. So I thought, since it was on the list of wanted books, I’d tackle this one.

Is there a place to see which titles are “in progress?” I don’t want to duplicate work if I can help it.

Glad to help out as I can.

-Phil

If you search Joseph Conrad on the book page and click on this one, it will show you the status.

Also, someone expressed interest in this title a week ago, but it hasn't yet advanced (no repo posted), so that hasn't yet registered on the book's page.

Worth keeping an eye on that Google Groups thread, then. (And a "subject search" of this Google Groups is the belt-and-braces option for Vince's sage advice.)

If no repo has been posted then we can assume they haven't started. If
you want to claim it in that case then you can.
