Universe today and Whats up 2006 was created by astroda1
A lot of you will know of this publication. It has been a very popular download, so much so that the webpage for the download has been overwhelmed and is not functioning. Does anyone know of a mirror or sister site where the download file might be found, or if anyone has it working already, would you be willing to pass it on in email. My band width will stand it if yours will. Thanks,

hi all,

I downloaded Tammy's publication on Thursday. I will put it in a directory I have created of astronomy software, publications, etc. that I will burn for people at the Connacht Star Party in Galway at the end of the month.

the pdf is 13.5Mb in size so if I was to email it to a lot of people it would take quite some time.

if anyone cannot make Galway, you can send me a message at skynotes at eircom d.o.t. net (replace the dot part with ".", etc) with your postal address. If I get a significant number of enquiries, I might have to maybe get people send a SAE beforehand. Hope that's ok.

the best way to distribute this might be to get a person in each club to mail me and they can create copies of the CD for their membership locally and hand them out at meeting.

Can you send/drop over/email me the ISO and I'll try and burn a few dozen for Galway? Anyone got any CD cover artwork suggestions btw? Just something simple in black and white that can be photocopied.

Cheers,

Al,
I have downloaded the PDF.
I can burn copies to CD for Galway also if you like.
I would suggest putting the PDF reader on each CD also.
Let me know if I can be of help and if so, how many copies I should burn.

I really must think of something interesting to use as a tag line!

I have uploaded a copy to the following folder;

www.webtreatz.com/resources/365days.pdf

Should be a bit faster than the original site (was like download for me)

Before you ask, the website explicitly says its ok to distribute this!!

I managed (just about!) to download it last week. Excellent publication with a lot of effort put in. I doubt I could email it with my dial up though :(
