Maybe as a comment, but would be also nice for the comment to be machine-parseable.
Useful information would be:

  • Number of pages in the book
  • A set of MD5 sums of known versions of the book (MD5 changes with resolution/size..)

I think this could be covered by an index.csv or (perhaps better) index.yaml file which lists all the books. Fields should include:

  • book name
  • publisher?
  • number of pages
  • checksum

If variations of the same book are referenced by different indices, then each book should have its own entry.

That said, I really think that #39 is the best way to go here, rather than switching to YAML / XML or some other format.
