Someone would have to set up the subject structure under D.Learn. 
Then a possibly required input field (thinking web interface) 
could specify the subject the question belongs to. A voting 
system would then sort the responses after relevance and 
usefulness. It would help building useful, easy accessible and 
comprehensive documentation.

Also, language and library debates could be tagged by subject and 
the posts could be rated by votes in order to organize and 
extract key points out of long threads.
