Nah! Too much traffic for little gain, I think. A web page with shell script collections and a link posted to the list would be *much* more preferable, if you ask me. A web page is easier to extend later on, reorganize, categorize, present in multiple ways, etc. without increasing the traffic of the list immensely.
