Convert Lit distribution site shutting down!
From Dan Jackson:
"Update (2003/10/07)
The UK's implementation of the European Union Copyright Directive means that, starting from October 31st, it will no longer be legal to use or distribute Convert LIT in the UK. In accordance with this Directive, we will unfortunately be closing down this web page. If you believe you can provide a home for Convert LIT which is not affected by this or similar directives/laws, please drop us a line. "

That's a shame. Hopefully there will be someone who can host the download site in a different country.

Can't post the URL -- DRM violation! Use Google.

No links can be posted, even to the results of a search engine. It's not like it's hard for people to find it themselves using the search engine of their choice, and we don't want to risk getting shut down.

No worries - I understand that this is awkward, but there's no good way to approach this, so we'll just have to keep reminding everyone. :-)
