This sounds good to me. 

One thing discussions on Cohousing-L lacks
is a mechanism for summarizing, bringing closure to or arriving at
consensus on topics.  Sometimes individuals attempt this with their 
postings, but often discussions just kind of fade away.  Could
substantial threads be paired with a facilitator somehow who
might oversee that discussion and it's life cycle?
