See, for example, this one: viewtopic.php?t=72211

Everything from the top to the link lists was added when the podcast was finished. The original post started with "This has been percolating in my brain for years". You can follow that thread to get an idea how it's done.

In the past, an MC has offered the use of their uploader folder. We could find an MC willing to do that, or you could use the xx-nonproject folder for the submissions (all named somewhat uniformly, so they're easy to find and delete later on).

Thank you. I'll have to plug in the coffee machine, of course.

Aha, I had not heard that podcast before, though it appears I offered to add to it ... then forgot. Thanks for the link and the reminder.

The community podcasts are all listed here: https://wiki.librivox.org/index.php?title=Librivox_Community_Podcast

You know, in case someone has nothing else to do but listen to old podcasts.

There's lots of still relevant info in them!

Many, not all, of them were in the early days before we had a catalogue. They seem to have gradually become less popular with readers and people have struggled to get contributions.

It would be fun to review "the early days" podcasts. I might do that when I get time.

I could be interested in this project, which seems to have some renewed interest lately, even though it was originally proposed 3 years ago. One of my best friends grow up lost his brother unexpectedly about two months ago. And then this morning I discovered that my best friend in college actually died six years ago in a farming accident. If you would have asked my yesterday, I would have said that he was fine as far as I knew, and that I email with him occasionally.
