AIS Idea Register Prototype

The AIS Idea Register would be a means of collecting ideas for AIS. Ideas of all kinds: old, new, tried, not tried; whether you think they would have a minor or major impact, please add them. They can serve as building blocks with other ideas. They may provide inspiration for new ideas. Below is a prototype of how they might be arranged. All of these are real although some of the dates are estimated. The links (blue) do work.
