Outside the Box

I don't in any way want to belittle the comments that I've gotten on this site. This isn't an effort to stifle any input at all. But I've been overwhelmed by the amount and level of discourse that my meager comments have caused. And while this isn't a bad thing, I haven't expected this level of involvement from other folks, though I've been very pleased by it.

I only want to see if we can come up with an even better format, and some folks have suggested a bulletin board setting. My Web Host has a bulletin board software, so I'm curious what people think about this idea and whether I should remove comments from this page and point everyone here, or whether I should just maintain the status quo, etc. Third ways?

I should also say that I'm working on a new site and this area will likely be moved en masse to that new site, though the feel will be very much the same. The same capabilities are possible there, so I'm wondering what people think. I know there are a lot of bboards out there already, so I don't really care to wade into it if no one is going to use it. One other thing this might be good for is for suggesting and asking things about the site and also for storing information that people request of me. Since it has a file sharing capability we might also be able to share data that way.

As always your insights are appreciated and will be considered.
