But have in mind that some institutions pay for every MB they transfer
via internet (mail,www,ftp, other stuff). If a project becomes too big
people must do one of these things: end the project, bring commercials
on the site, find a sponsor for the pages. The last would be the best.

Maybe you should look on the traffic the global directory produces,
before you start off. I donīt know you conditions or how thick youir
lines are, but if your connection is not good, the resulkt might be
very slow browsing on your pages.
But I think what Lawrence and others try fits very well in the global
directory. Maybe it is possible to work with them for you?
BTW: I am very busy nowadays, so my work (PC-faq in sgml, etc.)
will have to wait. But I have all this mind.
