Hello. I keep seeing cryptic messages in the PG newsletter: "Project Gutenberg of Canada needs your help! Please email: pgcanada@lists.pglaf.org".
What kind of help do you need? What's "pgcanada"?
Hi Jennifer. Thanks for your interest. Project Gutenberg of Canada is, as might be deduced from the name, an effort similar in intent to Project Gutenberg, but based in Canada. The most immediately noticible difference is that that means we must work to comply with Canadian copyright laws--not American ones. As to your question "what kind of help do we need?" I'm not sure I have an answer for you. There was some activity back in November, and then more in January, which resulted in some groundwork being laid. However, not much that I am aware of has been mentioned since then. I presume that people who has expressed interest in some parts of the effort have continued with their parts, which is often more productive than exchanging messages in a mailing list. I hope this helps... Andrew
