Lots of people have tried similar projects in other languages but as far as I know none have persevered.

Personally I think it's important to have one person in charge who is able to approve of the quality of all the project's output; for now, at SE, that person is me and I'm only an expert in English.

Project Runeberg seems to be still going after 30-odd years.

Project Runeberg is trying to be a nordic Project Gutenberg, not a nordic Standard Ebooks.
