We need a bulwark in the English-speaking world. We really need to set up a PG-50 in Canada. Soon. Very, very soon.

Hi. Are the new posts from PG Europe going to be announced on the "posted" list as is currently done with books from PG of Australia? Also, what about getting a gutenberg.eu or gutenberg.int domain?

Project Gutenberg Europe is starting at http://pge.rastko.net ; it is located in serbia, hence will work as life+50 soon: currently it is just a mirror of PG, new material from DP-EU will be uploaded quite soon.

1. Because every country and every culture deserves to build it's own Project Gutenberg, sometimes more than just one Project Gutenberg. 2. Because Canada has NOT made it's copyright laws more restrictive over and over and over. 3. Specifically because last week Australia DID make it's copyright laws more restrictive, and is considering doing it even more. 4. Even more specifically to host Gone With The Wind, after the lawyers' onslaught about it recently. 5. Project Gutenberg of Canada also should encourage more French eBooks, as well as just in English. 6. The more Project Gutenbergs the better. . . .
