I’ve been advocating for trn, but making a version of it for the web would apparently involve a large quantity of boring programming that no one wants to do.
Sounds better to me too. Hard to imagine that no web weenie has gotten around to it yet.
If not, it brings up another related topic—how to collaborate more effectively to actually produce things.
Is the current code available? Tweaking the current system could probably go far. Looking at the current stuff, I see a lot of infrastructure must already be there. There’s Friends, which provides the infrastructure for Ignore. There’s personal settings. There are article ratings. Adding at least personalized discussion level sorting and filtering. Personalized watch list would be nice too.

Here’s the code.
I meant the current code for the list, not the new trn code.
lesswrong.com’s code is on GitHub.
Here’s the “Hacking” document.
Edit: atucker apparently made a VirtualBox VM image to simplify getting LW running on your own machine.
