well, i already have my own text file of sources i use, but for ones i have not used, an off site collection of sources would be nice. just in case the regrettable day comes when dpr die or something freak like that happens. Would be even nicer if there was a SR vendor wiki from users with proven high buyer stats.
a decentralized silk road type market would be really cool.. it would kinda work like the bitcoin chained network.. I don't even know if thats possible.

I really really hope that list is encrypted?

of course in encrypted via pgp in a simple text file..
i don't ship shit to my house anyways.. thats what drops r for. are your emails encrypted inside gpa? i bet most aren't

If SR goes down, many vendors will migrate to the alternative sites. But the best one could do is to collect vendor email addresses. They're almost always found on vendor profile pages and are usually TorMail addresses. But TorMail being flaky like it is, it may be awhile before I could get in contact with a vendor.
But I like the idea of a decentralized SR, but it's not very practical considering how TOR works.
Some vendors have their own website like Blue Sky Traders and The people's****** (I forget their full name).

I think a vendor DB is a very good idea just in case the unthinkable happens.
In fact with all the issues lately we have been working on a contingency plan. A direct sales site that will be closed to non members when SR is open and open when SR is closed. Thus giving the ability to still order your goods at cheaper prices when the road is down.

Imagine how many people would get scammed if the site was gone and they were making orders through email. Good luck with that.

agreed! best of luck with that! SR is the only thing keeping vendors honest...
