I think one good way to manage things would be to have guidelines
documents, which are then collectively edited and maintained.  But I
don't know of any groupware tools to do that maintaining
automatically, so I guess that for now we'll have to use humans for
that, although that will have some bias.

I'm posting many draft documents about various things - groups
proposed to be created, keywords to use on the subject line, proposed
topics for UU, FAQ files, etc. - which I hope people will comment on,
suggest changes etc.  Personally I would prefer public answers instead
of email to me (to keep the comments readable to all) but if the rule
is that all comments are posted, I'm afraid this would be too much for
many readers.

Perhaps some kind of a mail alias going to a file available via ftp
and/or to a program posting summaries of comments daily/weekly to
alt.uu.future (later probably alt.uu.admin)?  Then anyone (not just
me) could read the file/summary and update the documents.

Are there any tools available for this kind of administration?  Anyone
volunteering to set such a scheme up?
