Hm. If no one else wants, to I'm foolish enough and interested enough to try to organize this effort. Just don't make me regret it :-)...
What I would also like to suggest is that we find some way to cooperate with tuxmobil and linux-on-laptops -- we use their info and we share with them what we gather. I think everyone would win if they get up-to-date info -- which means we get it, too -- and they end up with an easy way to redistribute their info and keep it up-to-date for their users.
