Chris basically put together the Simarillion from his fathers notes. And of course all the other background books from other notes (Unfinished Tales, etc). I think he said at times his father had contradictory stuff, so it was Chris who determined what was published (in the Simarillion).
Whatever. Even Chris has to be older than old these days and won't be around much longer. [edit: just looked, he's 89]
Myself, I'm thankful Christopher is doing all this. If he didn't all we would have of JRR Tolkien is the Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit...
