You have to remember that like most Tasmanian publishing, this is a labour of love; there is little financial return that can be expected for the publishers, so we are dependent on their time, energy and desires. Bill may well have a new project on the go and find that is taking up his spare time.
Track notes may not be immensely detailed, but they do need to be correct. That's a hell of a job. The maps were improved for the second volume; if I were reissuing the book, I'd probably want to include higher quality maps.
Ebook publication and distribution isn't quite as simple as some believe it to be, but this may well be a feasible option down the track.
At this stage, I think it's just important to be grateful for Bill's efforts to provide the track notes that we have and be hopeful that we see an update. Christmas? Maybe, but maybe not.
