No. And doesn't like any kind of automated access. If you want to do 
that, use a mirror from the mirror list:

   www.gutenberg.org/MIRRORS.ALL


I've tar'ed all rdf files together so you can get them with one request:

$ curl --user-agent "MyBotName/1.0; +mailto:[email protected]" 
http://www.gutenberg.org/feeds/rdf-files.tar.bz2 ...
