****This is the PG Newsletter for December 10, 1998**** [Usually sent the first Wednesday of each month, delayed if by relay.] Main URL is promo.net Webmaster is Pietro di Miceli, of Rome, Italy
If you ever take the time to read this Newsletter beginning to the end . . .this is probably the best time. . .there is a LOT of information, for both those who just want to get our books, and, also for those who want to help create those books.
This Newsletter is actually being posted November's first Wednesday in response to the new United States copyright laws passed just last week and is thus doing double duty; as the December 10th Newsletter is more traditionally a venue for releasing some Etexts of the best classics— which I most often dedicate to my father, who passed away December 10, 9 years ago, just after getting PG's initial supporter, with one of his brilliant ideas that kept amazing me all of my life!!!
So. . .here is the biggest PG Newsletter of all time... containing more Etexts than ever before, and, getting us more ahead of schedule than ever before...with more people to contact about becoming a PG volunteer than ever before, and even more. . . .
This has been a VERY hectic week, as I came back out of vacation mode, just a week ago today, having posted only about 5 Etexts in 12 days of vacation since our previous Newsletter, and in that one week we posted all 31 Etexts left to complete the next month, as well as the 49 files of our new, and more complete, AND PUBLIC DOMAIN, Shakespeare edition! [During the writing of this Newsletter we have posted three more Etext files for May, 1999, appended at the end of the lists. We also should be posting the newly revised copyrighted Shakespeare files any minute. Sue and Greg may be sending you an independent Newsletter about those.
So. . .please forgive me if I have overdone or underdone anything here . . .I am already 7 hours late in getting this posted as we speak.
