I'd be delighted to, except for one small logistical problem - I'm not on
the Internet.  Since the vast majority of the postings are about gateways
between the Internet and other nets, I'd be compiling info that I
couldn't verify, which is probably a bad thing.

This is probably irrelevant given John Chew's compilation, which Kjartan
Stefansson just reposted.  More detail would be useful, but there's
no point in arguing this on the net.
