Wolmegut definitely got a copy of the Pennsic XXXI Pile, at the war. I
don't know if anyone handed them a copy this year, but I am putting Lyev
in touch with them.

There's no legal issue, but there are some technical issues to getting
the _whole_ pile up. For example, the 15c Italian stuff from
Ellisif/She'erah was typset on an ancient (obsolete) Mac, and we have
been unable to get PDFs made... and scans of nearly horizonal lines
don't look very good. So, we need to re-typeset it. That would be a
good excuse to mark the misura, which would improve the ability of
musicians to play it correctly...

Most of the pile can be up, though, and actually quite a lot of it is
already up at Eric Praetzel's website.
