DougAK & MrMark -

Thanks for continuing to provide feedback on SI on this thread. Here's what I can tell you:

* SI Search - We're looking at a few options to speed this up. Search is a relatively expensive feature (hardware) for SI, and we're thinking of moving to a different database and/or optimizing it. I hope we're 1-2 weeks away from a solution.

* Thread Maintenance - The risk with switching ownership is having threads co-opted and moderated by individuals with a strong opinion in one way or another and permanently changing the composition of the thread. It would be difficult to monitor this from an administration perspective.

We're considering the following: If a thread needs updating and the thread owner hasn't posted on SI for a certain amount of time, it can be taken over (at a member's request) by an SI Admin, who will update the original post & inform the users. Of course, this could cause a great deal of work for us, so it might not be realistic.

Anyway, interested in your thoughts as we continue to consider...

John
