I'm looking for comments:
Would such a list actually be useful? (To other departments / forum users?) - This takes some time, I'd like to know if it'll be used
How should I go about indexing it? I thought it would make sense to group suggestions based upon categories rather than simply alphabetically, as that'd be easier to find a thread?
Are the categories I have so far useful - should they be changed / removed?
Or anything else..
Also, I've only got to Feb 2004 - and you can already see the most common suggestions re-appearing time and time again...
What I have so far is below - it's current#ly pretty much unformatted (tabs don't seem to work on the forum...)
