Pine

This is an Encyclopedia
One gateway to the wide garden of knowledge, where lies
The deep rock of our past, in which we must delve
The well of our future,
The clear water we must leave untainted for those who come after us,
The fertile earth, in which truth may grow in bright places, tended by many hands,
And the broad fall of sunshine, warming our first steps toward knowing how much we do not know.

Hi Pine,

The idea creator doesn't need to take ownership of any project that results from it. I'd encourage you to go ahead and put the project up in IdeaLab and see what sort of response it gets.

Unfortunately not. I think this would be a good research project for Inspire. Pinging Siko to ask if she knows of any good candidates to take ownership of this project.

Cheers,
