Second, I would suggest making the 260 field a bit more ISBD-ish.
260 |a-Urbana: |bProject Gutenberg, |c2006.
or at least:

Yes. You'll see I'm now using just 'Project Gutenberg' for the publisher name -- after coment from Greg. The a subfield can be used for place of publication, but ... I'm not sure what that is. Is it still Urbana (I thought PG had long since moved from there)? Is it the business address of PGLAF? Is it the home town of ibiblio? In the end, it seemed easiest to omit that.
I always used Urbana because it's the historical home, and of course PG still has a presence there (i.e., Michael). Legally speaking, the PGLAF organizational home is wherever I live (funny, I know), unless the PGLAF board decides otherwise. But I don't like using this as a publication location, since I might move. Chapel Hill would be reasonable, since that's where iBiblio is, but PG has no "real" organization there. Salt Lake City is where the business office is, but overall I still prefer Urbana as the "publication location" for PG. There is no 100% accurate place to list. -- Greg
