Suggestion:
It would be nice if the title for each Sutta being studied could have the English meaning included.....like it is for the Snake Simile.

Could we have a look at some of the Sutta Nipata at some stage? I have heard it referred to as a bit of a hidden gold-mine, and my wanderings through it thus far have been fruitful.

That would be good once we get through the MN. I found reading the Sn with the help of Bhikkhu Bodhi's excellent talks very illuminating:

Some discussion of the Upanisa Sutta might be interesting and useful.

Hello, I am writing an essay on the Maha-sihanada Sutta, which is shocking to my positivist instincts, and I would like to hear what other people have to say about it. I hope we can discuss it sometime soon!

Yes, it was back here:

However, I imagine that there's no problem starting a thread on any particular Sutta it in the General forum (or the Classical forum if you want a classical discussion).

Hey JC, have we gone through the Digha yet?
I don't have a copy of Maurice Walshe's translation though I;m sure enough of our sutta wallahs do to make it worthwhile.
kind regards

On the title it would be helpful to have which Nikaya the sutta is from as well as the name

This site has some of the suttas that A2I doesn't, though sometimes the translations are a little rough:
