Does anyone know when the entire Diana Wynne Jones collection will be released as eBooks? Primarily in Canada on kobobooks.com

I didn't know the entire collection was going to be released as ebooks. That's great!

I was able to purchase Reflections, Earwig and the Witch, House of Many Ways, Dogsbody, Fire and Hemlock, Enchanted Glass, The Game, & A Tale of Time City through kobobooks.com and The Pinhoe Egg through google play books
I have yet to read 'Earwig and the Witch' or 'Reflections'. I need to buy them.
When I purchased Reflections from kobobooks.com, it disappeared a day later. I think some sites have it available for pre-order though.
I'm probably going to have to go ask Harper, but any chance these will be available south of the border? Sounds like there's a bunch of titles that haven't seen print in awhile. (Despite the giant resurgence of being able to find DWJ stuff here in the middle of Harry Potter fever)

I find that contacting the publishers directly with a request to purchase an out-of-print book is sometimes successful as they might be in possession of some leftovers.
