Hmm... Interesting concept. Anyone interesting in working on it. One
software program to look at is TikiWiki (http://www.tikiwiki.org ?). It is
designed for collaboration, it might be a good candidate for something like
this. I had it installed at one point but I gave up on using it because I
didn't know what to do with it. If you have never used a Wiki, a person can
post comments edit the "webpage" and instantly everyone else can see it.

Some decent web page would be nicer...

I could imagine a code-upload page.

I could imagine others clicking on the line they wanted to change, enter
their code and their comments. In different colors for each poster.

Perhaps votes for the best variant.

Interested ones / learning ones might learn a lot when one clicks later on
from the initial source through the whole discussion to the beauty on the
last page.

For laaaaaarge sources there could be statements of interest displayed,
something similar like X in SEU, in the responsibility of the original
poster, but others could see the rest of the code, too, for clarification
and/or other proposals.

That would be a lot better than posting tons of code over the mailing list,
IMHO.

Snippets and flame wars could still run over the mailing list... :-)
