When I try to access the library I get :

"The vugraph library is temporarily unavailable.
It will be back online in a few hours

6:30 PM Eastern, May 30, 2008 "

It is now 07.13 on 1st June in the UK - and I'd like to see some of the USBC Vugraphs - do we know when it will really be available again?

I don't know when the library will be available, but you can see the USBC Vugraph records on the usbf website. Go to <http://usbf.org/index.php?option=com_vugraphs&event=USBC2008> and click on the stage of the event in which you're interested. Click on any score that is in color to see the scorecard from the match, and on any result on the scorecard to see the bidding and play. There's also a link at the bottom of each scorecard to the LIN files if you prefer to watch the play as a BBO movie.
A few of the scorecards are missing some boards, but hopefully we'll find the complete LIN files for those very soon. It turned out that in order to create multiple LIN files for a segment in which you are covering more than 1 match, the event names not only have to be unique, but the uniqueness has to occur within the first 20 letters of the name - I was using the team names to make unique names and those were too late in the title, so late-finishing matches over-wrote earlier finishing ones. Now that I've discovered that, it won't happen again, but it did cause problems through the 6th or 7th segment yesterday. Sorry!
We were unable to cover the first two segments of the Round of 16, so that's why you won't be able to find those.

Thanks for report Jan - and for your great coverage of the event. Happily the library now seems to be back on line.
