    Hi,

    I have Jeff Glatt's web site saved as a PDF (the web site entitled MIDI Technical Fanatic's Brainwashing Center). I don't know him, but one night in 2014 I was looking up info on RPN & NRPNs and it came up in Google. There was so much useful info about
    MIDI and all things related to making music in the box, I had to grab a copy for myself.

    It's a 671 page full PDF with all its links intact, exactly as the site appeared on 1/26/2014. I will upload it to Dropbox if you three or anyone else are still interested in using it as a reference. It's come in handy several times over the years.

    I've no clue if any of you will see this message 7 years after your conversation but I figured it's worth a shot. If you'd like a copy of the PDF, reply to me here, or *even better*, drop me an e-mail at: windsorhollow94@gmail.com

    All the best,
    Russell

    Hi!
    Well, I at least keep comp.music.midi on my group list, so I can
    check if anything still shows up (it never does..at least until
    your post!), but I'm probably the only one!

    Some googling shows that both Jeff Glatt and Peter Billam still
    seem to be around -- I had quite a bit of conversation and
    code-sharing here with Peter back in the day, but he departed
    long ago. I don't know why Jeff dropped his site, I used it too
    quite a few times.

    I think I have enough sources of MIDI info not to bother with
    your site dump, but I'm glad somebody preserved it! I think it's
    also available of the Wayback Machine. Haven't checked the link
    above. pjb.com.au is still active, anyway.

    Anyway, thanks for the post! Thought you'd like to know that
    one person has seen it at least!

    Cheers,

    Vint Cerf's fears are coming true! Firefox NoScript helps a
    lot, without it I find a lot of sites unusable.]
