It could start with an application form hosted at fidonet.org, and/or at  an
exisiting NC's website if they have one.

The data from that form is processed to "figure out" the best available
"already qualifid" NC or host based on the application results.

There might still be required some human monitoring of course, but the most of
the work to generate a properly constructed NL entry would be done.
