I see from PG pages (FAQ #0): The mission of Project Gutenberg is simple: "To encourage the creation and distribution of eBooks." This mission is, as much as possible, to encourage *ALL* those who are interested in making eBooks and helping to give them away. A link to a book is an help to give it away. Discouraging direct linking to the download pages of an individual book is IMHO contrary to PG mission, since it makes harder to find and download the book. Why should we force people that want a precise book to query our database (use our respurces) and possibly miss the book, when from the book downloading page they have links to the rest of the site?
