Hmmm. I've got it on my Linux partition. I'm not sure that a discussion newsgroup is a better solution than the message board you linked, but there ALREADY IS a *binary* pinball newsgroup out there and that could make a VERY good compliment to an unmoderated message forum.

Maybe something like that would be a good HQ, so-to-speak and the archived tables could go there (with limits on them). Meanwhile we could get some volunteers (or even the table authors if they're willing to double upload) to send a copy across the binary pinball newsgroup (which wouldn't affect bandwidth on the site).
