Re: !@!Re: [gutvol-d] ebooks libre et gratuits (fwd)

We could probably run a mirror of this... is anyone in touch with the folks (perhaps in French)? It would take some cooperation from their end (such as an rsync server) to run a good mirror. -- Greg

The site is now available again: http://www.ebooksgratuits.com/
See the front page of the Web site for what I believe (my French is almost nonexistent) is an explanation of what happened.

Ebooks libre et gratuits had an arrangement with MH apparently where their books would appear on PG eventually. Now that the ebooks web site is no more, what will happen to the ebooksgratuits which did not make it to PG? Will all of this work have to be repeated by someone else? Is there an archive anywhere of this enormous quantitiiy of work? Why did ebooksgratuits disappear? Pressure from Canadian publishers/ government? Is there an unknown story here?

I'd be more than happy to mirror it, if I knew what it was I was supposed to fetch and mirror ;) (Yes, my last name is Desrosiers, a French name, but my French is so rusty, you don't want me to translate that for you ;) David A. Desrosiers desrod@gnu-designs.com http://gnu-designs.com
