Hi, Adria. Let me introduce you to Carl Malamud, who runs resource.org
Carl, Adria has 7000 PACER documents she'd like to contribute.

FTP, since it's more than 5GB.
I just went to resource.org - under the pacer folder, there isn't a
folder
created for bankruptcy court. These are all bankruptcy court docs.
Would you
create a new folder for bankruptcy courts?
Not wanting to sound too cautious, but are there still
investigations of
resource.org ongoing?
Do you have plans to improve the search capabilities for
resource.org? Seems
like one can use Goog site search or write a script, but for true
"public
access" to legal docs, a user-friendly search platform is key (I'll
like
normal people besides Stanford geeks like me to use resource.org).
Thoughts?
Adria

Subject: Re: Fellow Pacer Downloader
I read the NY Times article about your efforts regarding Pacer
downloads.
I
have downloaded more than 7,000 documents from Pacer using the
designated
libraries (until they were suspended). It's nothing compared to
your feat.
Anyway, do you have a website or platform for putting these
documents
(which
is now cleared by Legal)?
That's great. Yes, the documents are being published on resource.org.
What's a convenient mechanism for you to send them?
