As published in 1914 it is PD in US.
Doesn't that apply only to books published in US?
Its copyright status in Gernany (published in Dresden) is probably unclear, so it should not be uploaded to Commons.
Its copyright status in Europe depends on Charlotte vital records, but so far I was not able to find any related data, especially her death date. If anyone have ideas about where I might found them, I open to suggestions.
 
It can be uploaded locally to oldwikisource and, likely, to some other wikis that recognize US copyright status only.
Good to know.

No. I don't have a book I would like to try it in mind, and I guess it would be pointless to import an random book on which I don't plane to work, wouldn't it?

Right I would have been interested to find works of Charlotte Pulvers, especially Elzasaj Legendoj, but actually I'm not even completely sure the book is in public domain as I didn't found her vital records.

Cheers

I agree there might be some work to do at some future point when we're trying to import mixed-media works into Wikisource, but I'm afraid for now the sole purpose of ia-upload is to convert IA scans of books into DjVus. MP3s or any other non-text work cannot be converted with this tool.
 
Have you tried using it? Did you notice any problems?

Zip files will now fail. I'm not sure what people who were attempting to
make DjVus of MP3s were thinking, but they'll get a nicer error message
now.
Apart from the file format, which was under some patent issues until last year and should be soon be available to Commons (if not yet), what would be the problem with uploading the file to Commons? All the more, some books might have sound component. My daughter have a whole library of that kind. She also have plenty of book with tactile data which often make me wonder how we would integrate such a book in Wikisource, as I'm not aware of any technology to render that kind of data linked to the material texture. Defining a file format to store that kind of data would be surely the easy part, all the more when "digital texture" is a topic already extensively covered in the literature for 3D rendering purpose.
 
Just sharing some thoughts…
 
I dare say I'm broken something along the way, so do keep an eye out for
weirdnesses and let me know.

Thanks,
sam.
