CP/M archive to image 8" CP/M floppies

I used to be more on top of CP/M archives on the net, but I
haven't kept up in the past few years.

I have images of several hundred 8" CP/M software, including original
distribution disks and a lot of stuff pirated in the 70's/early 80's.

I also have maybe 100 more 8" floppies with CP/M related stuff that
ought to be archived.

A decade or two ago I would image these other floppies myself but I'm
no longer with the free time to do these activities.

The floppies I have already imaged are available on the net at
  ftp://ftp.trailing-edge.com/pub/cpm/

Most of the images reside in cpm.zip, in a format where each
physical sector is mapped to the image, resulting in a 256256 byte
image.

For the floppies that are in CP/M file format, there are "*.cpmdir"
files that list the individual files on the disk.  There are also
"*.index" files that say what was on the floppy label.

Are there any takers for the remaining 100+ CP/M floppies?

Tim.
