[Lingtyp] On making these interesting discussions more public

[giorgio.arcodia at unimib.it]

I think there has been a misunderstanding on someone's 
part (probably on mine) here:

Nick Enfield and Mark Dingemanse are the editors of the 
book series, but an edited volume in the series would have 
its own editor(s) (as in: the persons who plans the 
volume, collects the papers, etc.), right?
