In private groups (like companies) that do this well, that sort of
"convenient way" turns out to be someone who is willing to do the
summarisation and post it.  Perhaps what is needed is a small group
of people who would like to contribute, who can't contribute code,
but who can spend some time doing summaries, documents, and that sort
of thing?  (Yes, I'll put my money where my mouth is.)
