I am quite disappointed by the DAISY files at BookShare. To me they
don't exactly look like what I think of as DAISY. For example, page
navigation is one of the least important navigational structures in
DAISY, but it seems to be the most important one in the BookShare files.

I am also not sure that Raman's claims for DAISY support in Emacspeak
are particularly defendable. Notice that he created his code before
there was any content to test with. So, Raman's DAISY support is Raman's
idea of what DAISY is based on whatever he based it on. That part I
don't know.
