Hmm...a couple of years ago I worked on some 17th-century issues of the
Philosophical Transaction of the Royal Society for Distributed Proofreaders. I haven't seen them show up on Project Gutenberg; I wonder what happened to them?
One paper I particularly enjoyed proofreading was Robert Hooke's invention of barometric techniques.

Thanks so much for posting this article. What a treat - reading the unedited, unexpergated works of Isaac Newton for starters!! I know the contributors to the Royal Society are a list of Who's Who in the scientific world and to have access to over 400 years of it even for a little while is going to be a joy! Already forwarded this article to my entire mailing list.

AWESOME!!
From Newton to today... this is absolutely wonderful.
What a resource for teachers, too... school or home.
Thank you for posting this... I might not have heard of it otherwise.

The archive, at www.journals.royalsoc.ac.uk, will only be available free until December. This should give someone time to set up a mirror site. I better start downloading!

Now this is great news. I'll be able to finally read all of Leeuwenhoek's papers.

O.K. it's not as old as most of the things you guys dig up, but it's still a momentous set of papers.
