Oh, and while I'm singing Stanza's praises, I should of course mention that, quite apart from Jim Adcock's GutMagic effort, Stanza *already* includes its own internal catalogs of e-book sites, both paid-for and free, among them Project Gutenberg. What is more, Stanza's internal Gutenberg catalog is browsable by Author, Title, Most Popular -- whatever!
It is perhaps worth noting that Marcello deserves some recognition for this. Before the form of the catalog that he created, that made it possible for Stanza to include the often updated list that you mention, all that Stanza had on offer from PG was a static list of texts that never got updated, and could not be searched in as many ways. This has also helped to make PG material more widely referenced in other places as well. This would not have happened if Marcello had not created a resource that others could use easily. Programmers would otherwise have had to do a lot of extra work, as Jim Adcock described in another recent message. --Andrew
