They may be a bit aggressive in moving things into the NC domain as well but I
need to do further research on that before I can be sure.
I have stuff on ccmixter and on kompoz. Both have their plusses.

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. Hi,
I'm going to build a webpage for the LAM mix so if anyone has
suggestions for things that should be referenced on it and even ideas
for the layout/theme etc... I'm interested.

I've never used it, but it seems to have all of the functionality you
need built right in.
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.
Do you mean ccmixter the site or cchost the platform? If the latter, please
double check that license options are a config time choice and not hard coded
or, if the latter, that it is easy to mod.
Cheers.
all the best,
