spoon-discuss: Re: spoon-business: recognized proposals

[Benjamin Bradley <activist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Would it be possible, when the proposals get listed on the website, to
have a short list somewhere containing a list of the proposals (names?),
who submitted them, a very brief (ie one phrase or a sentence) summary,
and maybe the type of proposal (ie typo/spelling correction, etc). Thanks!
