...aaaah... THAT one... probably a huge hammer for a tiny nail.


How about a no-blingbling route instead.

Is there any program or protocol for automatically mirroring something
dynamic like this small web protocol list,

NNTP?

There is comp.protocols.misc and it is in stasis.  The text probably
would fit in there and maybe comp.protocols.misc would be a good place
to discuss the protocols that have no own newsgroup.

For the rest of the non-NNTP world a list of mirrors using a variety of
protocols may be good enough, they would stumble over it via some *logs
in their preferred protocol dimension.

a source code tree?

Some send diffs/patches via CVS or Git via mailinglists or plain email.

IMO additionally posting the diffs is not a bad idea in this context
too.
