Greetings! Over the past few years i've seen numerous 'network information sources' change for the better, e.g. Before 'archie' came along, numerous people around the net would collect and post regularly information as to which sites had what available for FTP'ing. And thanks to volunteers who in their spare time compile lists of information that they regularly post out, e.g. in the music news groups, lists of upcoming album releases. comp.mail.maps, lists of museums in the military newsgroups etc... Now what i would like to start putting together is a list of all the worlds computing sites! yes, yes, i know what a 'huge' number are out there... The idea is that people send me details of their site, and followup details when something changes so that i can keep updating the list, and i'll post the information out into this newsgroup and whoever wants to be on the mailing list and regular intervals. Here's the information and format i'm asking for: Company Name, Full Address, Contact Email address. n) Computer Manufacturer, Model, Benchmark? ...for a suggestion. I'd like to hear from people as to what they think of my idea, and if they like it, what info they would like to see. I was thinking of adding somekind of benchmark? so that i could total up sites and put them into somekind of order as to which is the most powerful.

Why not get them in the same format as the uucp maps in comp.mail.maps? That way people will know the syntax (and S Hussein will know where to aim the ICBMs B^>). And some lucky people might just be able to send you their uucp map entires.
