That makes more sense. :-) My favorite form of redaction meeting is
actually the one where the host or guildminister/head/big kahuna
provies a recipe as "homework" two weeks or so in advance and
everyone brings their own redaction, with a *synoposis* of their
redaction efforts.
We could do that on line, y'know. We couldn't taste-test each
others' efforts, but we could take turn posting period recipes and
then go away and redact for two weeks, try out our efforts on willing
spouses/guilds/guinea pigs, and then post what we found out.
I like the community-building aspects of these lists, and this
strikes me as a way to combine the sharing and the research
components and come out with a quasi-useful end product.
