You know, I've seen a lot of BBS lists out there that give the name, the phone
number, the line settings, and *maybe* a word or two of the subject matter,
flavor, or what have you.  But I have *never* seen a competent list out there
which actually discusses the board at all, or reviews it, or critiques it, or
competently lists anything about it.

I am willing to compile such a catalog, as long as *I* don't have to pay any
long-distance charges.  I can write up reviews for the Seattle area, but I'm
willing to collect them from any area, neaten up the reviews, and stick them in
an FTP directory somewhere.  I'd prefer to do this with as little actual work
(i.e., dialing out) as I can possibly get away with.  :)

Does this sound good to anyone, or does it seem unnecessary?  Personally, I'd
love to see one out there, but. . . .

Suggestions for the format for such a catalog would be welcome, too.
