I'm currently revisiting Susskind's GR series, with the intent on hosting a weekly group "watch and work" "party" at the uni I work at. The free lectures are great and I'm glad to have them. However, I think they could be supplemented with some problems and solutions, particularly ones that follow along and make sense with the videos.

Would I be able to just make a thread with a few problems and solutions (hid in spoilers) and have it locked afterwards?

I actually think it would be great to have a few threads that were "Susskind Lecture 1 Problem Set Scaffolding", where PF members would help contribute ideas, questions, and check each others work, and then a final thread with 10 posts (1 for each lecture) containing what we decided was most optimal.

I know this is slightly unconventional for the site, but I think it would be great. We could potentially have a subforum for supplemental materials that are open-source.

Is this allowed and something people are interested in?

Thoughts?

There's been some discussion between the staff about this over the past few days. I'm going to start a PM with you and some of the staff so we can discuss it further there.
