Originally I hadn't planned to host anything, unless the original website goes down (e.g. a lot of games on RPG Online are lost). However, to let you play games in an emulator on a webpage it's necessary to mirror the games.
If a game still has an entry on SS or CP but no download then I can see that you don't want the game to be public, not so if the game is totally disappeared.

We were talking about running DOS OHR games in DOSBox running on the web. The only problem that I can see is that most early versions of game.exe have been lost, and there might be some slight compatibility problems in using a different version.
Compiling a modern version of the OHR to JS/HTML5 using emscription is a completely different project. If anyone wants to attempt that, FreeBASIC has already been ported.
