- About a central repository: a good idea - note that there is already
the Public Ada Library, don't forget it.
It is not versus "home page" archives that are *much* simpler in the short
term to manage. Of course domains like XOOM are often firewalled-out
and the servers collapse frequently. Copies to safer haevens are better...
- About search engines: don't worry, the usual ones are already good at finding
resources. I have the impression that keywords in the _title_ (not
as meta or such) are the most efficient. There are also _reviewed_
categories in Lycos, Yahoo, Netscape...
e.g. http://directory.netscape.com/Computers/Programming/Languages/Ada
where it is worth the effort to submit things.
For an overview a meta-engine is interesting, like
http://www.metacrawler.com/index_text.html
Maybe an Ada Web Server could be programmed as a meta-engine specialized
in Ada?...
