As JT said,

It's fine if you want to create and collaborate on a list of machine-specific versions of Mac OS, and it's also fine if you want to image them and preserve them within your own environment in case the original media (or other backup media you create) fails. Most of that is supported by and allowed by original licensing agreements -- and is generally considered fine.

However, this isn't the place to create and host a publically accessible archive of Apple's software. We're not licensed for that, you're not licensed for that, and the plain and simple truth is that this is almost certainly not going to happen.

At this point, Apple has posted stuff online (and most people have their own copies of the Apple downloads area) to make every system from 1986 to 1996 or so work. Any newer than that, and you're on your own in terms of finding the software for it.

The final word: This isn't a piracy web site.
