instant notification once an edit has been approved. Which, in some
ways, is even cooler than making the edit yourself, especially if it
happens within seconds. If reviewers don't mind being identified, we
could even allow immediate real-time interaction via chat.

My vision is that eventually, editors will have access to a "master
control center" for reviewing changes they are interested in. This
would integrate some of the real-time tools dedicated vandal fighters
are already using and plenty of new mechanisms.

While all of this is _hard_, it's not inconceivable. A talented small
group of developers with enough funding for a year or two could pull
it off.

Kurt, now that things are moving forward on the initial
implementation, perhaps the German chapter could pursue some funding
for further development in this area, e.g. through the EU? It will
probably take at least until early 2008 for the Foundation to become
capable to execute such things in a timely fashion, esp. now that we
also have to relocate.
