Yeah, it will be pretty cool. Plus you can hit a central page that has *all*
of the news on it, not just the stuff for each section, or the stuff deemed

Yes to everything except the user-moderation. There's a bunch of people who
do moderation for it already, before posts even appear. It would have to
work rather like the current system. (Squish is very good in this respect.)
