I think that is a very good idea, the problem at the moment is that all the
sites are only maintained by a few people and there is just too much
information to keep up with. If there was a hub that anyone could contribute
to that really would make things easier to find. Most of the info needed is
available, but searching through so many sites to find it is very difficult
(especially if you don't know exactly what you are looking for).
Something like this has already been mentioned on the forums here:
http://www.atari-forum.com/
That is the most active Atari site, so maybe that is the best place to
discuss it.
Sincerely,
Russell Hayward
