Archive?

What does everybody think about doing an archive of all the Wodefic posted and linked to here?

See, this site being more or less the nexus of all things J/W, you can be reasonably confident that if it exists, it'll be here somewhere, and there's a better-than-average chance of the same for Psmith and Blandings fic, too. But it's not all neatly catalogued in the memories, or anything, so a lot of the people who're new to the fandom get stuck slogging back through months and months of old posts. I know several people got together a while ago and gathered stuff over at [livejournal.com profile] indeedsir_posts, which has often been my savior when looking for something, but that was in (*checks*) May 2005, and one or two things have been posted since. ^_^ And every time someone complains about not being able to find any J/W slash, here of all places, my heart goes out to them.

Suggestions? Volunteers to help compile a new list?

Well, I'm actually currently working on saving all the J/W I can to my hard drive. I don't know about an archive, but What If, after I finish, I put a zip file on megaupload or something, and then every month somebody can collect the fics and art of that month and do the same.

Also, does anyone know if it's possible for a mod to pass off the duties to another? Because if we can get in contact with her once, it makes more sense to ask her to do that.

It's possible for the mod to add additional maintainers - but as she's deleted her account that had mod status here, I'm not sure that's it's possible for others to gain mod status without going though some livejournal bureaucracy or at all.

Is she still using the bestfishes @ asteri.net e-mail address? Because I feel that that would make the bureaucracy run smoother. Of course, knowing my bureaucracies, I should probably ask them if that is indeed the case.
