I think the closed-board aspects are the problem, not the solution. At Milford a few years ago, there were several authors with not-a-few semi-pro credentials sitting around and scratching our heads as to some of the next steps; one of the (maybe the only one present?) SFWA members said, "Well, if you were in SFWA, you'd have access to that information." Some of it was really basic stuff that I'd dug around and found before that, but not all. Not nearly all. And none of it has *ever* been in one place.
So: a question.... on a closed board....
