Yes, thesession.org does exactly what Olga does.. However combining the indexing approach of the abc tune finder, along with a centralized database like Olga, or thesession.org, would be even better.. The only issue is permission.. Someone would have to contact every site with abc tunes that we would possibly want to query for tunes and get permission. John is running a copy of the tune finder on one of my machines and I periodically get emails asking why one of my IP addresses is spidering their site.. I tell them what it's up to, and thy are usually cool about it.

I'm confused. How is that different from Olga? Olga is made up entirely of submitted ascii files, and ones that were pasted in the newsgroup for examination/distribution. I understand that you're looking for something different entirely... but it does seem that thesession.org matches olga in this respect at least. Or am I missing something?

I know there are many out there. I'm fond of http://www.thesession.org/

--Has anyone thought of compiling a centralized database of abc tunes similar to olga.net.. I find that resource incredibly useful. Basically something like John's tune finder, except that it saves everything to a local database. I would be willing to donate computing power & storage space to such a project.
