Just wanted to drop by and note that I will probably be unable to answer any but the most pressing questions for the next x hours until IMSLP goes back up. I have tons of work still left to do...

EVERYONE REJOICE FOR IMSLP HAS RETURNED!!!!!!

But some (all of the files I've tried) are only 11 kb each and therefore not the entire file and therefore "damaged" :(

But I hope a fix will be up for that soooooon

[EDIT: 6/30/08 3:30 PM EDT]

Ok so the files are all OK. What did I do wrong? I right-clicked and selected Save As (actually I didn't but that is one possible scenario). People, don't do that! You must open it by clicking on it normally to get through the disclaimer part first then you can access the main file.

Also, for Firefox users, if you are using the PDF Download from NitroSoft, you must select Open PDF to get to the disclaimer page.

And as expected, it looks like there's no US-only server, with composers like Stravinsky -- will that be coming back at all?

Still, it's great to see it return...checking out one of my favorite composers (Sibelius, who wasn't in Canadian PD until this year), I see a whole slew of yummy stuff....

Yes, but not now. I will explain in detail later (currently dead tired and still have tons of stuff to do).

I have to tell lots of friends but wanted to thank you first. I have been following your trials and tribulations with baited breath and it is really nice to see somebody win one. Congratulations and thank you for not giving up on us.
