Yes. In fact I have been thinking extensivly about exactly this as what I 
call the Archive <http://tiddlynodes.tiddlyspace.com/#Archive>, wichi is a 
static representation of the archived google groups discussions (and note 
that this post is already archived by the time you read it). It also 
evolves into the next step namely Summaries 
<http://tiddlynodes.tiddlyspace.com/#Summaries> intended as a more 
interactive system where anyone can add meta-data and refine the posts 
turning it into an effective knowledge reference for the community.

Eric actually informs me that the first step should not be too difficult. I 
happen to know of someone who has stored all previous discussions and it is 
merely a matter of scrubbing these and basically turn posts into tiddlers. 
Ok, more or less. 

As brought up in my thread "Please help me specify this for Eric 
<https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/tiddlywiki/ZoOO-KocjoI>", 
I have some hours of his expertise and hope to use them to the maximum for 
the benefit of the community. It is crucial however that it woudl be on 
something that the wizards among us would find interest in picking up on 
after his initial efforts on it because it is unlikely that any more 
complex project can be finalized in those few hours. If I were to spend 
those hours on what is discussed in this thread here, would any of you guys 
have a potential interest in taking the torch after? Obviously Eric might 
be interested in continuing with the contribution but that woudl be out of 
my "control".

Please take a peek at the Archive and Summaries ideas and tell me what you 
think. Obviously it's all just ideas and I did get a bit carried away as I 
was working on so some bits may be over the top :-)
