Thanks, Aaron. This is beautifully done - congratulations!

Has a link checker been run on this?  I quickly found a missing
file via file:///PGDVD_2010_04_RC1/etext/3002.html
and wonder whether some filetypes or other content might not
have made it.

I am really impressed at the number of titles!

I have temporarily put the ISO here:
  http://pglaf.org/PGDVD201004-RC1/
 ...but don't try to download via HTTP unless you have a
fast 'net connection.  Use the .torrent instead.

And you can browser the disc contents here (fast connection not needed):
  http://pglaf.org/PGDVD201004-RC1/content/

Thanks again!  I will confirm this burns onto a DL DVD.
