For information: sadly, Michael S. Hart, the father of Project Gutenberg, has died http://www.gutenberg.org/wiki/Michael_S._Hart

Even more reason to greet projects like yours that honour Project Gutenberg, his own lifetime project.

Thank you – I’ll try to promote it from my side as well, and keep you informed.

Hi Serge — feel free to do what you wish with the project idea :) It hasn’t really taken off at all here, so any help or promotion would be great.

Hello Deb,

This not only is a very good project, but it’s a worthwile cause too! I joined right in, and am correcting my link back to your article so that the image isn’t hotlinked anymore (sorry about that, was short on time)

I’ve got a question for you: would you mind if I “mirrored” your Project Gutenberg Project (or PGP) on Goodreads.com as a group? Of course, I’d keep credit to you and a link here, but since the PGP isn’t present there yet and I guess a certain number of users may be interested, I wondered if this would seem a good idea to you.

In a similar vein, would you mind if I translated your PGP explanation in French? There are quite a number of Frencht books too in the Project Gutenberg, and if we could get more French-speaking readers actually support Project Gutenberg, this would be a win alla around.

Of course, if you prefer to keep thinsg this way, in order to better have a view over your project and who joins in, I’d understand since this is originaly *your* idea, so in this case just say no thanks, and I won’t insist.

Thank you, and best regards
