What is needed to add an index to the Magazine then?

Yes; "Magazine" is somewhat a misnomer. It was named before it really
took off, and once it took off, it grew in a direction different from
the name. But it doesn't really seem worthwhile to rename it, and I
don't think it really makes sense to force something that's working to
change to fit the name, either.

I don't see any particular reason to be _opposed_ to an index if you'd
like to work on one.
