Integration of CS with MOSS

 Not sure if I should write my suggestion under this space as it has nothing really to do with CS or MOSS... but well...

I have an idea for improving forums but unsure if it is practiced as yet. That is to have a few members, who are knowledgeable enough to compile forum answers and replies to a question. Problem is that currently there can be quite a number of replies to a question and anyone who is searching for answers have to go thru all the replies. The solution is to have a compiled or summarised answer, something that the tabloid Today had done at times for letters written in under Voices.

So, this complied answer will be found above all the forum entries in the topic, enabling anyone searching for an answer gets to see them first. On top of that, perhaps there can be a content page lisiting the titles available for such answers (which may be different from the Subject as people may have mis-titled their question) and a concise description of the question invloved.

This is just to allow users of the forum to get answers quick, somewhat like a value-added service...

I have plans for that, mainly to take advantage of MOSS's content management and personalisation. Any other things you guys would like to see, or suggest?

I think integration or even migration to MOSS is cool, however, I have the following thoughts.

At the moment, it appears (to me) that CS is already doing a great job for SGDN's online community. Forums, Blogs and Files are all available. Infact, I think the blogs are under-utilized at the moment. Maybe, we can open it up to more forum members?

Secondly, don't you think the integration effort will take a lot of the committee's time? Given the fact that you guys are already so busy with work and personal life? I would think that unless there is an important feature that we really need, otherwise, maybe hold it back for awhile.
