A couple questions for you about ArchiveRL

First off, are you aware that ZIP & RAR files uploaded to the Internet Archive can be browsed as directories, unlike other archive formats? You just have to add a forward slash (/) at the end of an address, as seen here: https://archive.org/download/HACKLITE/HACKLITE.zip/

Maybe you already knew this, but I think it would a nice way to make the project more accessible if people could do this to grab specific files without torrenting. The only downside I'm aware of is that the listing can be broken/incomplete if there's a tremendous amount of files in a single archive. Perhaps they could be split up by name into nine archives - 0AB, CDE, etc through XYZ.

Second question: is there one single place that you'd prefer discussion of and contributions to the project to be centered? Roguetemple or Reddit or somewhere? I might take some time to help with various things, but I want to know I'm keeping up with the latest developments and requests.
