Any chance the Stedman's dictionary can be done?

I will do any books that I can get the source text to in English that is
not controlled by copyright. DTBmaker will take text that has been
marked up and convert it to DAISY in any of the DIASY formats (2.02,
DIASY/NISO 2002 and DIASY/NISO 2005)

The Medical Center is my employer and has supported the development of
DTBmaker, hosting the files, paying my wage and paying my dues to the
DAISY consortium, The NFB of Wyoming proved the people to test the books
on and advised the Medical Center on how to treat blind patrons. It
didn't hurt that my wife was the state president of the NFB of Wyoming.
