Many people do this (ask the list for site info), so you'd think that by now 
all one has to do is search the birding-aus archives to get the information, 
rather than asking again.  But it seems that many people send their replies 
directly rather than via the list, meaning there are a lot of requests in the 
archives with few or no answers.

Try searching for "RFI Bright" for an example (although perhaps there really 
were no answers).

There must have been a wealth of site information passed around like this, that 
has gone no further than the original recipient.  Maybe some people don't want 
their favourite sites to become general knowledge, maybe they just forget to 
reply to the list, or maybe they feel no one else is interested.  I don't know 
why it happens, but if it happened less, then the archives would be a better 
resource.

In recent times I tend to
get that information by posting a request on birding-aus and then collating
the various responses.
