"Michael Hart, the founder of Project Gutenberg, has died at his home in
Urbana, Illinois at the age of 64. The project he started back in 1971
lives on, however, producing quality public domain texts now readable on
devices that could only have been imagined when Project Gutenberg began."

Cheers,
