This is a nice update, and seems pretty even-handed.
i too consider it to be very even-handed... which might (or might not) be meaningful. i also found it to be just a bit too modest. project gutenberg has the honor of being the "digital library" that is most mentioned by different stripes throughout cyberspace, with a high profile recognized by unknown tom, dick, and harry's right up through cory, and i think it would not be unreasonable to remark on this fact of its singular visibility... perhaps also of importance -- if it can be expressed in a way that is non-evaluative, yet nonetheless highlights the vital point -- would be to contrast the _philosophy_ of project gutenberg's "unlimited distribution" with other digital libraries that attempt to control how their e-texts are being used... -bowerbird
