Absolutely, though lets hope it's a random error and not something 
systematic.  I went to download the file in question to have a look, but 
as it's a 450MB XML document, which Firefox is gallantly trying to load 
for me to read, I suspect I will fail.  Any chance of these resources 
being offered as zip files?
