Any Interest in the Old Netbooks?

I'm not taking a poll or anything, but I wonder if there is any interest in reviving and editing the old Netbooks? I know a lot of the information is unuseable in its current form, a lot made its way into official product one way or another, and most if not all is hopelessly out-of-date, but I keep coming across little flashes of brilliance and thought I might revive one or more of them if there is any interest.

Since I'm cannibalizing it for a personal work anyway, I'm happy to re-release the Netbook of Dr*gs. Because mine is a cyberpunk setting, I had need of the Netbook; but, it has some serious flaws and is geared directly (and only) at a Fantasy audience. Due to the name, I'll have to see if I can host it but I may change the title to do so. Although that Netbook will always be free, the personal work based (largely) on the Netbook will not.

The free Netbook will be much thinner, and is still open to submissions. I take it from what's left of the "current" (it's about 20 years old now) Netbook that Elves are immune to poison? Either way, I'll knock 100 pages off that book just by dropping all of those entries; I think a half-dozen or so that affect Elves is more than enough. They should be difficult to acquire, not at all plentiful in the wild anyway, and expensive, but I'm certainly not looking to "erase" anyone's contribution, just not be redundant. The same motif over and over again gets really boring - and fast!

I'm definitely going for a "less is more" approach, although I'm contributing a sizeable chunk of original material and there will be a legend.

I don't always think to include where I got something, so I'm not always great at attributing content. I mean to (it doesn't cost me anything), I just take copious notes without remembering to write down the TV show, movie, book, whatever I'm watching, listening to, or otherwise consuming. I apologize for that.
