Status
Preliminary. Document artifacts are being collected, rediscovered, reviewed and sorted from various old harddrives and backup media. Following this collection phase the repository will most likely be split in two: one repository for datasets and one for e-books. Refinement of the assets will be ongoing as will be documentation of the assets.
While issues with the artifacts abound, specific defects are being tracked in the repository issue trackers.
