I think this would work for everyone involved. For those who like the news of the weird, it would put them in one place and give it visibility for them. For those who think it clutters the place up, it would be out of the way and they wouldn't see it as much. And mhking wouldn't have to maintain the ping list any further.

Like I said, the status quo for now, but I would not mind hearing some feedback on my idea. If people are for it, let's do it.

On the surface, that doesn't sound half bad. I'd like to chew on it a bit though, if folks don't mind.

One thing that comes up is that some more pedestrian topics fall under the "JD" sort of omnibus arena that I've cobbled together, but there may be some other option that may work for that...

You could always still ping people to those. Like I said, just throwing out suggestions.

mhking may still want to maintain the ping list and alert those who want to be alerted that way. But I think it would be great to have those in one spot, whether it be a separate sidebar topic or whatever works. Thanks again for considering it.
