Everybody wants to put up cool sites with information, but everybody 
expects someone else to actually contribute the content...

Sorry, not personally against you Mark. It's just that I think there are 
too many of the "I've set up a site, please someone else fill it with 
all the good stuff that everybody wants to see".
I personally don't see a great need in such sites, and I seldom, if 
ever, contribute to them. The contents is the hard part. Setting up a 
wiki or similar itself is the easy thing.

That said, all the power to you all. In case one of you actually manage 
to create a site where all the useful information does exist, it would 
be a very nice resource to have.

(If nothing else, I'll eventually create something running under RSX, 
just to test the concept, and I like hacking in RSX, and it would also 
be poetical justice for a PDP-11 to host the information... :-) However, 
it might just not get any information either... :-) )
