Thanks for the replies..I had looked at GitHub but thought it something
different, ie, collaborative software development...I will look again

hadn't thought of the Internet archive but that might be good and I'll take
a look at dropbox and Eric's other suggestions...altogether new to the
'cloud'

and regarding MARC records on the Gutenberg Project page...there is a new
feature that converts RDF/DC to MARC  but the download was small so I
suspect only recent additions...in fact, the necessary editing would remain
but may be useful for keeping my work up to date...I'll be interested to
see how it handles new line feeds in dc:title elements.

thanks again for the suggestions including Cary's that comes in as I type
this
