When did "PG2"/"PGCC"/"WEL" become the new Project Gutenberg site?
This was announced many times in the Weekly Newsletter, and discussed in several listserv conversations.
And most everybody took exception with the "new" and "old" connotation.
The current site was online for testing at least since Jun 22, the offical date of change from testing to opening was Nov 4.
gutenberg.org replaced gutenberg.net as the preferred domain name for that site during the same period.
The two changes are completely unrelated. gutenberg.net was abandoned in favor of gutenberg.org because .org is the standard TLD for non-profits. Getting rid of multiple domains also gave us better search engine ranking. -- Marcello Perathoner webmaster@gutenberg.org
