I think that the Main/Discussion distinction is obsolete, and should be done away with. I think that there are a lot of neat ways to present posts to people, and that we could use the tagging system more effectively, and that meetups shouldn't be in Discussion, and so on.

I also think that this will not change without devoted programmer-hours, and that it may be better to do a fundraising campaign for programmer-time for new features than discuss policy changes.

Before searching the programmer time it would be good to have a statement from the powers that be that they would approve of implementing a particular change.
