Thinking a bit more about it - it would be absolutely marvellous if we
could let users submit new links for the pages easily.  If a script
just added them to a checked-out copy of the file on freefall
somewhere, one of us could go regularly in and prune & commit.  It
would make it much easier to keep the site up to date and get a good
reference area.  Just an idea.
