The 9-11 Commission has released its report. I haven’t had time to read it yet.
I have, however, downloaded it and put up a mirror to the full report here.
If you want to view it in HTML, I put a quick conversion here, or you can download a gzipped tar file of the html and associated files here.
If you have a nice, fast, server, please mirror the HTML and let me know.
Updated: HTML is now much nicer.
