+1

Other information and addenda is welcome, but not necessary (re: Ian's
point about necessity), and I wouldn't postpone posting in favor of
fancier distribution. LCD is the most survivable (broadly), and easiest
to archive.

I wouldn't make this a requirement in any way, but Apache HTTPD format
directory listings (i.e., that de facto "standard" format) in particular
already have several tools that support easy archiving/mirroring
natively.
