Okay, I don't know if you have time for this, nor if you would even want to, but I have some suggestions for this mod.
You know how tld works, with the different categories etc. I'm assuming. Going with that, you could make articles sections, such as: sports-baseball, football, basketball; women-pretty, ugly, pretty ugly; category 3-sub cat one, sub cat two, sub cat three.
Take my site for instance. I'd have an articles page, with a customized threads template that would let the users choose to read articles by category: nursing, travel nursing, men in nursing, etc. or by specialty under nursing: er, or, med surg, etc. Or by author.
Then you could assign authors to their own catogory and give their "weekly column" a name, or you could allow them permission to contribute to a set number of categories.
This would basically be the same as giving permission to post in a forum, only the posts would be categorized in more of a links type format, and the text of the articles would appear just like a typical article on any other site.
Am I crazy?
