It has potential but I think it may be too powerful for the first 
version of the site.

I'm not sure the site would need to have any kind of account 
infrastructure. Basically it would just be a reference point for the 
details and location to download the actual mix.

I'm not sure it would be necessary to provide login facilities for 
anyone. I'm not sure if anyone would else would have a need to add 
anything to the site.

I'm open to suggestions though. If other people think they would like to 
make mixes and have them referenced it a central location specific to 
LAM then we could certainly take it in that direction. Although ccmixter 
sort of achieves that goal already just on a broader scale.

I guess what I'm wondering is if others would like to have a location 
for putting up mixes of LAM tracks or if this site should just be 
focused on the annual mix and leave the more dynamic aspect to the 
existing sites.

Maybe it can start as a single point and if there is demand it can grow 
to encompass other mixes in the future.

Anyway I'll give ccmixter a shot to see if it can be adapted to the 
immediate needs.


Cheers.
