tampaknya berniat melakukannya lagi


Explanation:
"set" sebagai adjective juga bisa berarti "intent, determined". Terjemahannya bisa misalnya:

Dia mengulangi kegiatan ini pada tahun 2003 dan 2004 dan tampaknya berniat melakukannya lagi terus-menerus/entah sampai kapan.

Kalau dilihat konteksnya (http://mywebpages.comcast.net/monkshould/CooksBooks.html), saya mendapat kesan bahwa kerja sama Thomas Cook dan Otto Penzler ini dilakukan secara sukarela, bukan tugas dari penerbit. Selain itu, sepertinya dia menikmati penyusunan antologi tersebut.

Menimbang hal di atas, saya kira kata "set" sebaiknya tidak mengambil makna yang "prepared" (yang mengesankan dia tinggal "bersiap" menerima tugas dari penerbit), tetapi mengambil makna yang "intent, determined" (yang mengesankan bahwa dia memang *ingin* [atau berniat, bertekad] melakukan lagi hal yang dia sukai.
