Thread Name: Origins: Poor Old Woman/Housewife's Lament
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: Poor Old Woman/Housewife's Lament
Sorry, Maeve - you got moved back to the origins thread for more work, because you didn't explain what was lacking in the DT version. Things should be resolved and covered completely in the threads on a song, before something gets put in the "attributions" thread for revision of the Digital Tradition.
The DT version is certainly in common use, so we might add a separate "original" version if it is significantly different from what we have in the Digital Tradition.
The "attributions" thread is for specific, documented changes to the Digital Tradition Folk Song Database.
