Hi folks,

For the last two years or so I've been cataloguing libre and shareable
content that I come across on my wiki, the FOSsil Bank (
http://fossilbank.wikidot.com/)

It currently contains almost 500 shareable works, of which almost 300 are
libre (my definition of shareable work is basically: 'under CC BY-NC-ND or
a more liberal licence, or in the public domain' and my definition of libre
is basically: 'under an open knowledge, open source, free culture or free
software licence, or in the public domain'). I might be biased, but I think
it's a great little resource.

But I'm also not sure what to do with it. I'm basically the only person who
contributes to it, and it's gotten to the size where I've added all the
libre content that I (so far) know or care about it. What I'm wondering is
whether you have any ideas of where we could take it from here: how to
raise its profile, how to build up a community around it, and so on.

I think one of the first steps would be to set up a mailing list for people
who are interested in finding more libre and shareable works. I would like
the mailing list to use FLOSS, but I can't host it myself. Is there any
cloud-based FLOSS mailing list service I could use?

Thanks in advance for your feedback, folks,

Chris
