The history of these inititives has been somehwat less than
encouraging.  We tried this a while ago and got some, but not a lot of
tangible results.

The biggest problem before was that many people doing the audit didn't
know what to look for, so missed a lot of things.....

Also, it is a huge effort to coordinate.  The effort also suffered
from lack of time of some of the participants.
