This is an interesting idea, and worth pursuing. I am currently uploading
all the PDFs to my Google Drive, and I have an offer from TJL to host them
at the Wiki (though with no direct links - presumably, this is a limitation
of the WikiWare); I certainly have no objection to additional sources.

Right now, the total of both the US Letter/ANSI A and ISO A4 PDFs is just
about 0.75 Gibibyte.

(The hard part is going to be changing the links on the website...)

I am willing to entertain any other offers of PDF hosting, and once I've
made the Drive archive public, anyone is welcome to download the whole
shebang and put it up somewhere. If you do so, however, I request that...

     (a) ...you guarantee public read (not modify) access
     (b) ...you let me know where you are posting them - I will happily
         list you as a mirror

I AM ALSO ASKING A FAVOR EFFECTIVE NOW: Other people have uploaded some
previous issued to ScribeD. I have no objections to their availability
there; however, I WOULD LIKE TO RESERVE THE PRIVILEGE OF SUCH UPLOADS TO
MYSELF FOR ANY ISSUES, PAST, PRESENT, OR FUTURE, THAT ARE NOT ALREADY
THERE. Part of this is so that I can keep track of which issues are in fact
available on ScribeD; the other part is that ScribeD allows downloading in
exchange for uploading, and while I think that that's a fair exchange, *I*
am the one that's putting in the 'heavy' work of publication, and I don't
think that it's unfair of me to want what few "material" benefits can be
realized.
