Why should I bother when the site exists! It is excellent. I will make a link to it from my site (finzi). What might be nice is for each site to mirror the other. I can't find in the web page the email address of the person in charge. Is it you? And, Hadley, I don't need money to establish a mirror. I have another computer I could use for it (which already backs up the main site). But it uses the same Internet connection (even another outlet in the same wall plug). The need for a mirror is partly to protect against correlated risks (fire in the building, network outages at the university, terrorist attacks, etc.) through diversification.
