An interesting idea which was just floated on the BBS at the Zaibatsu
pubnix, inspired by the "friSBEe" project started by cmmcabe (admin of
gemini://rawtext.club), is the possibility of publishing via email.
Typical text/gemini content is certainly small enough to be "uploaded"
as an attachment (it can't really travel in the body of an email due to
restrictions on line length).
