In general, projects like this would go through the standard PGDP
site. DP Europe is only used when the work is not in Latin script or
in a language high in diacritics (PGDP works in Latin-1, using
encoding for other characters (e.g. [>z] for ž), DP Europe works in
Unicode) (it might also be used for works PD in Europe but not in the
US, I'm not sure about that).
