Greg,

I was able to bring up https://ebookmaker2.pglaf.org earlier this morning
but now it's giving me 403 forbidden.

I have a pretty good collection of RST files I could test this with,
including an unfinished one.

For those who test DP productions prior to final upload at <a href=3D"https=

laf.org</a> :<br>
<br>
With thanks to Eric Hellman, one of our programmers, there is now a new upd=
ated version of ebookmaker (previously known as epubmaker).<br>
<br>
If you notice any problems, please email me: <a href=3D"mailto:gbnewby@pgla=
f.org" target=3D"_blank">[email protected]</a> or, if it is more of a featu=
re request, submit an issue to the tracker here: <a href=3D"https://github.=
com/gutenbergtools/ebookmaker" rel=3D"noreferrer" target=3D"_blank">https:/=
/github.com/gutenbergtools/ebookmaker</a><br>
<br>
The new version is here: <a href=3D"https://ebookmaker2.pglaf.org" rel=3D"n=
oreferrer" target=3D"_blank">https://ebookmaker2.pglaf.org</a><br>
<br>
After some testing, we will do two things:<br>
1. Update <a href=3D"https://ebookmaker.pglaf.org" rel=3D"noreferrer" targe=
t=3D"_blank">https://ebookmaker.pglaf.org</a> (and variations) to point to =
the new version.<br>
2. Replace the production version on <a href=3D"http://www.gutenberg.org" r=
el=3D"noreferrer" target=3D"_blank">www.gutenberg.org</a> to use the new ve=
rsion for all new uploads.<br>
<br>
Depending on whether problems are encountered, this change might occur in a=
 week or so. Or, we might need a longer testing period.<br>
<br>
We will then gradually run the new version on the previous eBooks (i.e., #1=
-#60000something). For the most part, this new version of ebookmaker is ind=
istinguishable from the old. There are a number of under-the-covers improve=
ments, including getting it into a source code repository with better docum=
entation for installation and dependencies. It also includes capability to =
make a simple book cover, when cover images are not already part of the eBo=
