:I had downloaded the lot from Bernd's site in 1999, and only managed to find my copy after you started putting it on hitchwiki. I had done the <ul> to <blockquote> conversion myself, but most of the rest of the clean-up was done using the W3C validator. I also fond a few more typo's (I actually have two nearly new paper copies of the book!) and changed some of Bernd's changes, most notably his use of ' -- ' to &mdash;, as per the printed version. There are still issues, most notably some text needs to be smaller, and it would be nice to have forward/index/next options in each chapter. I've also changed some of the typographical conventions, ALL-UPPERCASE titles are not-done.
:FWIW, I also have permission from Sylvain Viard to put his thesis (see my page) on hitchwiki, the multimania.fr site is gone. It is big (250K), and changing the internal links into Wikimedia format will be a huge pita.

=== Jags ===
This isn't related to the wiki, but still want to share with you Prino - why not here? Got two consecutive rides in Jags yesterday, while hitchhiking Vlijmen-Roermond! Never had any ride in Jags in my life as far as I am aware or as far as my ride registry tells, and then you get two in a row. Figuring out how I did that! Because when I find out, I'll be hitching Jags all the time! So now it's Porsche 2 vs Jag 2 vs Cadillac 1 vs Lomax 1 --[[User:Fverhart|Fverhart]] ([[User talk:Fverhart|talk]]) 10:20, 2 December 2013 (CET)
