I don't exactly know what it will take -- perhaps we are big enough
that we can split into more than one turbogears-users list.   It's
nice if everything is one one list, but it is pretty daunting to try
to summarize so much activity.

Perhaps it would be doable if we had a list of 4-5 people who were
willing to write summaries, and we only had to do it one week a month.

We'll also do better when we have better online docs, because that
will reduce the number and frequency of questions on the list.    But
at the same time, I would expect that better online docs will also
grow the community, which could mean more traffic on the list ;)

I'd certainly be willing to help one week a month if it means that I
get to read the summaries the other weeks ;).
