Default Publishing the Forum

Hello,
After the recent discussions regarding authors and publishing in this field of study, I came to wonder whether information specifically uncovered or originally discussed on this forum has ever been published in hard-copies. This forum and the wonderful groups of people responsible for it have been a treasure of knowledge since the forum's conception. I understand there are Gigs worth of information in the archives, impractical to print them all, but could some of the stronger conclusions be published at some point? It seems to me that such an endeavour would greatly complement many of the existent literature on ethnographic edged weapons. I understand there are many complicated issues such as authorship and copyright, but perhaps some of the discussions could be published as collections of essays or some such format?
What better peer-review board than a group of people that spans the whole world, has access to most countries and their cultural institutions and comprises all age cohorts?

Regards,
Emanuel
