As a side question --- Is PGCC a part of PG? Officially? Does Greg, for instance, have oversight over it. Is anyone from PG (outside of Michael) invovled in this site in any way? I know this is reopening old wounds around here, but the last paragraph on the PGCC home page makes it sound like this is an official part of PG, which I never understood to be the actual case... [quote] Up until now, Project Gutenberg has focused on the creation of the eBooks rather than their distribution and we have spent as much of our time on copyright as on eBook creation and distribution. This is our first attempt focused on distribution rather than creation. [/quote] Another paragraph, though, indicates that PGCC is a subset of the World eBook Library Consortia, which I'm almost positive is not related directly to PG. [quote] Project Gutenberg Consortia Center, promoting global literacy by multiplying intellectual properties though Internet library lending and increasing access to digital archives and repositories. Project Gutenberg Consortia Center is a branch of The World eBook Library Consortia. [/quote] Josh PS Oh, and I strongly disagree with the characterisation of pgcc.net as the "new PG" site, which no matter how you MEAN it sound, it will imply that it is the "replacement" for the OLD site (gutenberg.org). ----- Original Message ----- From: "Michael Ciesielski" <ciesiels@bigpond.net.au> To: "Michael S.

Probably some confusion about domain names here:
gutenberg.org = gutenberg.net the old site
pgcc.net = gutenberg.us = gutenberg.cc the new site
Uh, excuse me?
When did "PG2"/"PGCC"/"WEL" become the new Project Gutenberg site?
