-## Search across every public git repository
-
-The [git](http://www.git-scm.com/) version control system has been
-rapidly gaining in popularity both in the world of free software at
-large as well as at here at SIPB. One of the properties of git is
-that every object, whether it's a specific version of a file or a
-changeset to a project's source code, has a unique identifying hash
-(e.g., "8c5fa44b1a4902ba1f84a71df20bfe4f21867a7c"). Given one of these
-hashes, it should be possible to identify which project it came from
-and what it refers to.
-
-The "easy" way to do this is to create a massive single git repository
-with references to every public git repository we can find, but that
-probably causes performance problems, so you may need to be cleverer
-about how data is stored and expose a different interface. You'll
-also need to figure out a way to find all public git repositories.

+Not a fully formed thought, yet, but the basic idea is to have a web app that lets users create a document, and then it texs the document nicely for them, based on some template that they've selected, and gives them a PDF.  They should have the ability to edit the source or just use the WYSIWYG editor.
