We try our best on the ML archive to tidy up such annoyances, so threads
can be read in peace, eg:

The mailing list archive at REBOL.org already supports most of the
features people are suggesting here, incuding an API.
It doesn't quite do * personal tagging* (ie someone adding tags that
others can search or index) -- but that would only be a few days effort
if there were a genuine case for it....
....The closest it gets is *favorites* -- check the link above while
logged on and you'll see a prominent "Add to Favorites" link. Play
around with the feature, and you'll find this help page....
http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/boiler.r?display=fav-edit-help
....And the pages for the _few_ people who have created *public*
favorites, eg:
http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/fav-view.r?user-name=greggirwin
All that is really needed is:
1. the ability to add tags to favorites
2. a few more people using the feature to create what are in effect
their own site maps.
