Hmmm.. this wouldn't be too hard to write and sounds like an interesting weekend project.

Would you be interested in using WARC for the webpage though? This way, everything is captured in a single file and you aren't littering your repo with random files and images.

Aren't we just in luck that the weekend is just coming up!

I didn't know about this. I've looked into it a bit, and it seems perfect.

I'm not too concerned about saving webpages, I'm much more concerned about actually having a populated database of links. I only expect to need to use the saved page if the link breaks.

I can work on writing a simple elisp script (incidentally, I don't know very much elisp either, but that's something I am willing to take time out to learn because I expect to be using it a lot in the future), but I do need someone else to write the Android app.

You should always expect the link to break.
