There are a number of people who would come to mind for this work. I don't think Slashdot's wisdom, may the IPU bless them, will help us here; like so many other things, it's really a matter of investing the resources in getting the tech work done.
Mmm. I don't think the tech side is a problem - a web form that goes to a publicly-viewable or somewhat-viewable queue maybe.
The big issue in my mind is how to get people interested in even dealing with such a queue. wikien-l, the most likely first source of volunteers, was pretty tepid about the idea, some even questioning it was appropriate at all. I still think we do need something like this to avoid the next media silliness.
