This was a little mysterious... turns out I have two independent copies on snowy.arsc.alaska.edu. The one at ftp://snowy.arsc.alaska.edu/mirrors/gutenberg is not actually a mirror. It receives a live copy of files as they are posted to readingoo.ms and our main server at ibiblio.org (which runs gutenberg.org's server). The one at http://snowy.arsc.alaska.edu/gutenberg is just a regular mirror that I pull back from ibiblio, daily. That explains why it's not quite current.

connect to ftp.archive.org, it just times out. I am not a Debian expert but I do run a Debian server and know a reasonable amount about it. What needs doing? I am not really a programmer but I know how to install packages and set up things for the most part. If there is something that needs to be done, let me know and I'll see.
