ISBNumbers are for hard-copy print only.

The LDP produces electronic documents.
Hard-copy versions are only a secondary product.

Money has nothing to do with it.

And no-one has as yet satisfactorily explained *why* we should want to
do this, in any case.

(Oh -- and non-Stakhanovites on this list better keep their mouths
closed.
Their contributions are not welcome.)
