I'd like to see some coding suggestions to deal with this:

-  Somebody suggest revised data table design for AlterEgo, and then
build it:
       - these items come to mind:   Post date;  refers to web2py
version;  info about context (hosting O/S or GAE:  t2;  etc.)
-  Somebody write up an application to organize categories of existing
google group postings- start so it's just links to "good info",
      - expand over time to build forum software which includes links
to group postings, but is organized like a forum: by topic;  scan
existing
        forums for starting design concepts;
-  I like the DjangoBook project for it's commenting ability.  In
fact, I'd like - as voltron suggests - a way to write a book
collaboratively, so I am working on a book-writing project (for now,
I'm thinking about how I want to see it work).   I'm considering the
idea of something like a "Live Sphinx",  but not sure the structure of
it (as it is now) will make that easy.   I am sure reStructuredText
(Sphinx's basis) can easily be rendered live.   Many interesting
things in thinking about this, but the concepts are still forming.

More later....
