Web-based publication of the results and considered interpretation of a site for a variety of audiences i can understand, but the whole archive down to the last dog-eared context sheet? Why? Only two groups of people could possibly be interested:
Later archaeologists wanting to check specific details and who would probably be happy visiting an archive to see them; and
Pedants who want to shout 'Gotcha' becuse a context has been mis-represented somewhere in the report or because they want to prove that a WSi wasn't followed to the nth degree.
Either way, the numbers who could realistically be expected make use of this is so small that it would just be clogging up a chunk of bandwidth that could be better used for something else (like better on line reports).
