I don't think we necessarily need ongoing write access. I think someone
could volunteer to host the information and make a link to the main website
just once. I would volunteer myself if no one else does, though I'm on the
far end of a not necessarily speedilicious DSL line.
As for the effort to search, perhaps those of us interested in this effort
could split the archives up and each of us search a specific date
range. I'm all ready to sign on for that too.
