Between September of 1999 and May of 2001, this website was successfully devoted to the fight against commercial lecture notes companies... The site provides Six Information Pages and Two Position Papers. The site has not been updated once the online notes businesses had vanished, apart from an update on the timid resurgence of class notes businesses (July 2007).
