What's your format? I have a 3225 I sent to Adequate.com a year ago, almost, and it hasn't been posted yet (it was posted to RTL I think) so at this point I would send it to any site that would publish it. Or is this your own reviews only? (...) (25 years ago, 16-Aug-99, to lugnet.reviews)

Ya! I like this. Todd told me offline he's thinking of empowering someone to do some content organization in the /reviews/ part of LUGNET. Bad idea.

I'm pushing Todd's hot button on purpose here a bit, but I suspect that even though it's GPL he might not host it because Todd has a bit of NIH, which is what I was referring to vis-a-vis cathedral vs. bazaar.
