You can find them at www.interweave.com/rd/pwprojects Have fun! Especially those who are looking for "free" instructions! So many authors with names we recognize. I singled out Vasna, because she is active on Arachne. Others will be recognized. Wonderful bibliographies with many of the articles - for those who love books.
