Charles,
Thank you for all of your fine thoughts and concepts. I hope to hear
how others view them. And to answer your last question:
> who is it for?)

This information is for my own edification. It all started a previous
12th night when my husband entered a brewing comp. He was marked down
for using a "secondary source". As we did not at the time have a copy
of the original source, he quoted the recipe as written in Cindy
Renfrow's (I'm not going to mangle her SCA name here) A Sip through
Time. Because he was working off the original recipe (not a redaction)
we thought it would be categorized as a "primary" source, but we were
mistaken.
Basically I have been mulling over this and related issues for a while.
I am preparing a specific feast to accompany a ball later in the year
and thus the issue was raised in my mind again.
Mainly I just wanted to see what the majority of the people on this list
consider to be P, S or T documentation. Please note I am NOT trying to
say the judge in the case above was wrong, or that I was. I am simply
looking for further information.
Meliora.
