OK, once I again I issue the call: when are we -- the collective we -- going to set up Project Gutenbergs, or similar, to take advantage of (and suffer the disadvantage of) life+ copyright rules? Especially WRT life+50, time is of the essence... Anyone? Buehler? I don't have the technical or financial resources to do this. Someone in a life+50 country must, though. Where are you? Can we get something, even if only a shell, up and running by month's end? At least insofar as Canadian life+50 law is concerned, I will GLADLY offer to volunteer to do copyright clearances. I'll discuss my qualifications privately with anyone who may need to know them.

PGCanada: see http://lists.pglaf.org for their mailing list, archives, and people involved. They've been trying to get started. -- Greg

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.

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? At 12:07 PM 1/5/2005 +0100, you wrote:
