    Project Gutenberg's Etext of Oscar Wilde Miscellaneous by Oscar Wilde

    ******This file should be named wldms10.txt or wldms10.zip******

    Corrected EDITIONS of our etexts get a new NUMBER, wldms11.txt

    VERSIONS based on separate sources get new LETTER, wldms10a.txt

    This etext was prepared from the 1917 Methuen and Co. edition of

    Salome etc by David Price, email ccx074@coventry.ac.uk

    Project Gutenberg Etexts are usually created from multiple editions, all of which are in the Public Domain in the United States, unless a copyright notice is included. Therefore, we do NOT keep these books in compliance with any particular paper edition, usually otherwise.

    We are now trying to release all our books one month in advance of the official release dates, for time for better editing.

    Please note: neither this list nor its contents are final till midnight of the last day of the month of any such announcement. The official release date of all Project Gutenberg Etexts is at Midnight, Central Time, of the last day of the stated month. A preliminary version may often be posted for suggestion, comment and editing by those who wish to do so. To be sure you have an up to date first edition [xxxxx10x.xxx] please check file sizes in the first week of the next month. Since our ftp program has a bug in it that scrambles the date [tried to fix and failed] a look at the file size will have to do, but we will try to see a new copy has at least one byte more or less.

    Information about Project Gutenberg (one page)

    We produce about two million dollars for each hour we work. The fifty hours is one conservative estimate for how long it we take to get any etext selected, entered, proofread, edited, copyright searched and analyzed, the copyright letters written, etc. This projected audience is one hundred million readers. If our value per text is nominally estimated at one dollar then we produce $2 million dollars per hour this year as we release thirty-two text files per month, or 384 more Etexts in 1998 for a total of 1500+ If these reach just 10% of the computerized population, then the total should reach over 150 billion Etexts given away.
