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.
