Something I've been mulling over is having some simple app that uses lshw (for example) to punt the information to some central What-Hardware-Works central brain.
Go ahead. We could set up some service on linuxbios.org to receive such information, collect it and present it.
Can you write such a thing?
Technically, yes, I believe I can. The problem is the usual: not having enough free time.
That said, I can have a look into it. What sort of information should be stored, d'ya think? There looks to be a lot of potentially useful info in there. Is any of it stuff that people are likely to consider private or sensitive?
