We realize that the things that hold us back the most, such as web site construction, statistical analysis and data visualization, aren't unique to PD. So, posting on those issues to the PD forum is not appropriate. And, anyway, misses out on a huge amount of external expertise.

What I think we need is a virtual water cooler. Next to this we could chat about what we know and what we need to know.

Does anyone wish to collaborate in this area?

Perhaps consider setting up a discussion group on Google Groups, no worries about web design, or administerting a regular forum and such.
