Definitely amenable and great idea Galen!

One thing that occurs to me is that some of this could in principle be automated, since any given organization unit hierarchy will almost always include mailing addresses. It wouldn't be perfect -- for example, I know of at least one Evergreen consortium that has OUs that it does not care to (or cannot) publicly identify -- but would folks be amenable to there being some kind of "submit your OU hierarchy to the Evergreen Project" function, akin to Debian's voluntary package "popularity contest"?
