I&#x27;m getting to the point where I don&#x27;t know what to do about this.  There are many re-submissions, and the official policy is that this is OK in some circumstances.  In a way this is a good thing, because it gives good items a second chance when they sank the first time with no votes.<p>But when there has been an earlier, desultory discussion, there is some value in knowing that, but there&#x27;s also value in giving things a second chance.  I still think there should be an open, transparent way to link previous discussions, and then things would both get a second chance, <i>and</i> build on previous discussions.<p>No conclusions, no suggestions, just a degree of frustration.  Thanks for replying positively.
