Re: [Bug-gnupedia] servers and pictures

Yeah I'm sure it would only take a bit of time to set
up the perl servers so that you could submit like
this. Thats the beauty of a perl/SQL server as opposed
to XML, that there will be so many ways for people to
put up their articles. To put a new format up you'd
just have to write a new form and update the servers.
So in theory, if you have a nice program which formats
your work well it can be put up just so long as you,
or somebody else, is willing to sort out the forms
etc.
