Wonderful idea but not sure a realistic idea. Most of our users want books and software and this is the reason the moderatores are for those sections mainly.
The real problem is most of our users don't speak and write a good enough english (the moderators too) and the result will be thousands of users with a very little minority taking part to discussions. And if they will be more (i don't think so) i want to see the moderator reading every post about every engineering subject and checking if someone don't put some stupidities or a page from the Golden Pages in the middle of a very high level discussion.
We have to day the problems, software problems and free discution sections and only a few number of users use them (usually two or three sending the ball from one to each other) and for a very little number of subjects. All the daily discussions don't fill the place of one of Chigozie posts (i think the only good english speaker loving discussions).
Anyway in this case i will stop to post software and i will begin to discuss but the only problem will be to find an interesting subject and the proper words.
