I have sorted the files that aren't 0-byte, and that weren't in your
list below. There were 522 new cliparts.I haven't merged them with the
0.18 art yet.  I'll go through bugzilla and see if any of the 0.18 art
needs to be removed or recategorized.

Thank you, that was very helpfull.

Great idea.

It unzipps a folder named "clipart" with all the same folder names as
the 0.18 release. I think if you put the tgz file in the same folder
as the "clipart" folder of 0.18, then untar it, the new files should
all get put where they belong.

If you want just those files for some reason, you can grab them here.
http://www.stuporglue.org/downloads/ocal/problemart.tgz They're sorted
according to the titles on that list you sent.  The tgz has a folder
named "bad" with different folders in it for each reason the file
won't be going into the 0.19 release.

There were 296 0-byte files. I imagine that it'll take quite some work
to recover those. Do you think you'll have them recovered by Friday or
Saturday? If not, should we consider working on those for the 0.20
release?

Thanks!
