This seems like a good spot to insert a little idea I have been
thinking about.

In physics and astronomy some researchers are posting pre-prints
of new papers on the WWW for review and comment purposes. The idea
being to get a better rnage of review comments eraly on.

On an experimental basis I would be willing to place such pre-prints
on my Web server (at least for a time - how long would depend on
disk space issues).

Perhaps the feather taphonomy paper would be a good starter for this
service?
