Re: [gutvol-d] Is this a Project Gutenberg violation?
You bet it is - these ebooks cannot be redistirbuted unless the FULL header is included somewhere in the etext, either at the beginning of it or at the end. At least, that is what I gather from having read through the header many times. PG offers CDs AND DVDs of its etext collections for FREE without you needing to pay a cent. This company, IMHO, is just trying to rip people off by making them pay for something you can get free of charge from PG just by asking. Jared

I've actually asked PG several times (via email) for copies of the DVD so I can hand them out at my LUG[1] (I'm the president). It's been a few months, and I haven't heard a single peep or reply to those emails yet. That's partly why I'm mirroring it on my own here now. David A.
