Hi,

To those who want to know more about ONE idea on
"how to set a group of discussion"
here follows,


I had a really simple idea, in fact. I believe that the only solution is to
let people do new things without more investment in technologies. I mean that
using the news (and the newsgroups) with a bit more reflexion could be 
enough. For example, we could start a topic and everyone could reply on it
by REPLYING with the full text of the previous people, not indented. 
A number in the subject line would indicate the version, and everyone replying
would add 1 to it.
When the topic is over ( that is everyone agrees or everyone has said what he
wants), we would close the mail and put it on ftp like any article.
When we feel it is going to big, or we could split the mail and start sub
topics.

I have other ideas, and I've received some others by e-mail.

Everyone interested is welcome.
Please answer in newsgroup so that people can answer and so that the things change.
