When an item is removed from a collection, it is apparently removed from all of the archive as well. Hence no GWTW on the archive. nwolcott2@post.harvard.edu Friar Wolcott, Gutenberg Abbey, Sherwood Forrest ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jeroen Hellingman" <jeroen@bohol.ph> To: "Project Gutenberg Volunteer Discussion" <gutvol-d@lists.pglaf.org> Sent: Friday, November 12, 2004 8:30 PM Subject: Re: [gutvol-d] Gone with the wind i s "Gone with the wind"

Sayonara. Apparently all versions of GWTW have disappeared from the net.

The volume seems to have been deleted in August 2003. There are some fragments remaining, 1.67/2.24 MB . I believe that when removed from a site they are also removed from the archives. Also many zip files have been removed. Could be that the earlier defective versiions somehow did not get removed.

I got a version from there, don't try the zip files, but the txt files (1.0 version) are still there. I managed to get one complete... Now looking into having a Philippines based website set-up. Problem is, most Philippine hosting providers rent their servers in the U.S., very few have servers actually located in the Philippines. Also, a single book is not worth having a separate server at about $12 per month, and we need to discuss beforehand of the hosting provider about copyright policies of the hosting provider. Of course I have a lot of Philippine related works to be added to the collection, but to date they all happily can reside on the PG US server. (That might start once we want to tackle more recent Philippine PD works) In Holland, Bits of Freedom recently placed a long PD copy of one of Multatuli's works on-line, and then, using a yahoo (!) mail account a fake lawyer under the name "Droogstoppel" (should ring a bell with everybody who has read his most books) send a serious looking cease and desist letter to a large number of providers. Most complied immediately, even without notifying the owner, or verifying the copyright status (which was in fact clearly explained with the copy itself). Only one gave the correct answer that the work was public domain, and the request could not be honored. Jeroen.
