Hi Michael,

> I'd like to offer to be ArcEm web site maintainer.

A volunteer!  Capital!  I wouldn't want to see something like
http://www.redsquirrel.fsnet.co.uk/redsquirrel.html though, as amusing
as it may be on first visit.  :-)  Something that lets newcomers get up
and running quickly, including a better hard disk image, and lets them
clearly know how to contribute would be good.  (More volunteers
required.)

You're added, welcome aboard.

Indeed, I didn't know about http://adffs.filecore.net/.

I'd prefer it if the web site was kept under revision control.  Given
the length of the project is so long and participants come and go, it's
a pain to have to wade through mailing list archives when looking for
the history of why something is like it is, was that what was meant or
is there an error, etc.  Decent check-in comments succintly and
accurately describing the reason for the change can help a lot, as do
well-partitioned deltas.

Cheers, Ralph.
