As the regular reader of sci.electronics.design knows, we have a mixture of posts that have to do with electronic design, posts that are off-topic but still of interest, and posts that have no value at all. Alas, the same post can be of interest to one person and of no value at all to another, and both groups of people have every right to post as they see fit - nobody "owns" the newsgroup.
I believe that I have developed a method that will allow a single thread of my choosing to stay on-topic (as defined by me) while in no way hindering anyone from posting what they wish to post in other threads.
My question is this; assuming for the sake of argument that I can make this happen, who here would be interested in having such a thread, who here would object to such threads existing, and who here would object to the point of actively attempting to disrupt any such thread?
I have disabled my killfile for any replies that have the exact same "Subject:" and "Newsgroups:" line that this one has so that I will see any replies unless the person replying edits those headers. You can also email your answer to me at engineer[at]guymacon[dot]com and I will not reveal who you are.
If there is sufficient interest, I will describe my scheme and run a test thread so that we can evaluate the method and decide whether to proceed.
