-Project Gutenberg eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the US
-unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we usually do not
-keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
-
-We are now trying to release all our eBooks one year in advance
-of the official release dates, leaving time for better editing.
-Please be encouraged to tell us about any error or corrections,
-even years after the official publication date.
-
-Please note neither this listing nor its contents are final til
-midnight of the last day of the month of any such announcement.
-The official release date of all Project Gutenberg eBooks is at
-Midnight, Central Time, of the last day of the stated month.  A
-preliminary version may often be posted for suggestion, comment
-and editing by those who wish to do so.
-
-Most people start at our Web sites at:
-https://gutenberg.org or
-http://promo.net/pg
-
-These Web sites include award-winning information about Project
-Gutenberg, including how to donate, how to help produce our new
-eBooks, and how to subscribe to our email newsletter (free!).
-
-
-Those of you who want to download any eBook before announcement
-can get to them as follows, and just download by date.  This is
-also a good way to get them instantly upon announcement, as the
-indexes our cataloguers produce obviously take a while after an
-announcement goes out in the Project Gutenberg Newsletter.

-We produce about two million dollars for each hour we work.  The
-time it takes us, a rather conservative estimate, is fifty hours
-to get any eBook selected, entered, proofread, edited, copyright
-searched and analyzed, the copyright letters written, etc.   Our
-projected audience is one hundred million readers.  If the value
-per text is nominally estimated at one dollar then we produce $2
-million dollars per hour in 2002 as we release over 100 new text
-files per month:  1240 more eBooks in 2001 for a total of 4000+
-We are already on our way to trying for 2000 more eBooks in 2002
-If they reach just 1-2% of the world's population then the total
-will reach over half a trillion eBooks given away by year's end.
-
-The Goal of Project Gutenberg is to Give Away 1 Trillion eBooks!
-This is ten thousand titles each to one hundred million readers,
-which is only about 4% of the present number of computer users.
