Note: Just realized that the original post was cross-posted on LAU as
well, but I'm posting my answer here too in case people are not on both
lists.

I think it would be easier and more manageable to just have a group on
soundcloud (or similar) where we collect music made in Linux. This
would remove the obstacle keeping the LAM site down (lack of time to
keep up with updates/security fixes)...
