I was afraid someone would post that here before I wrote to the maintainer

I've only tried solving the upper left 1/9 of it so far, but I think I've
found two other errors. Haven't checked my answers yet, though.

Did anyone make a copy before the site was taken down (or to the owner
of the site, can you send me a copy - I'd love tit as a desktop.
