Get it on a website and get google to index it ;)

Hmm, given that the site it runs on is reasonably responsive and is
usable with a very minimal browser, I prefer discussing on a web based
forum myself (minimal as in lynx or a palmtop based browser)

Anyway, for what it is worth, I'd be willing to contribute to a wiki or
forum with some kind of frequency with new threads as well as my attempts
at explaining things ;P
