	I responded to the "first" call and received no detailed proposal,
no author terms letter, and no style guide.  Instead I received a phone
call asking me to submit an outline and writing samples.  The enthusiastic
caller informed me that I could have the detailed proposal, author terms
letter, and style guide as soon as I sent the outline and writing samples.
Although it seemed a little strange to write an outline without the
detailed proposal, I sent the requested materials.  I have heard
nothing since, even though I have written again inquiring the Waite
Group's intentions.
