EPROM issues, who can burn?

Something has been rattling around my head and I have the urge to get it
onto the ether (sorry I know it hasn't been a week yet, but the time did
change).

Somebody needs to set up an archival site for EPROM images, and we need to
come up with a regular/practical method of getting data burnt into a chip
for anybody that needs it.

I think a good storage transmittal format is MIME, text in the message with
all the details of what it is, name in the subject, and whatever common
EPROM file format as the attached file, or you know the funny looking block
of text.

More thinking, we need to keep the site private, or upload only, with
download permission only to selected individuals (who I would hope would
keep a mirror of the site in case the main site had a problem).

The value of perserving this data is obvious, so pardon me if its already
been done, but if it hasn't lets cook it up and get it going.
