I would love to see Chomsky's archive unlocked. I don't see how or why MIT needs to go on a crowd sourcing drive to do so however. The fact that they are doing so would suggest to me that there isn't a long term commitment to the material. Crowd funding efforts by places like this just strikes me as cynical. I would rather support an institution or project which actually needs financial support, than to put money into the mega wealthy MIT.
