It looks like the announcement was made in 2007, and the anthology isn't available yet.
Looks interesting, though.

Sorry, I meant the downloadable version isn't available yet.

I talked about the project a couple of years ago, and in the meantime it happened and it is available now, for free, online.
Please do enjoy.

Yeah, that's coming. Jeffrey Carver rounded up some enthusiastic volunteers and we will have one or more downloadable formats in the near future.
