I appreciate your feedback and sentiment, Old_Gray_Bear, I'm thinking something a bit more convenient maybe.

I'm not putting down the way it's done now, but perhaps status-quo isn't good enough. I think PerlMonks needs a new way of notification and interaction. If not for me (because I may never use it), but for the longevity of PM itself.

Do we have a cost assessment team here, or do we just provide pmdev with complaints and suggestions? Maybe a discussion could be had with a plan, and we could do a round of financing for specific enhancements...?

Update: s/financing/donations/; Perlmonks should always remain Perlmonks, with the gods in charge, and the pmdev doing the work at their blessing.
