Grantees are obviously welcome to do this. That said, my guess is that this will make the forum less enjoyable/useful for the average reader, rather than more.
I think a dedicated area would minimise the negative impact on people that aren’t interested whilst potentially adding value (to prospective applicants in understanding what did and didn’t get accepted, and possibly also to grant assessors if there was occasional additional insight offered by commenters)
I ’d expect there would be some details of some applications that wouldn’t be appropriate to share on a public forum though
Right, but they have not been doing it. So I assume EA Funds would have to at least encourage applicants to do it, or even make it a requirement for most applications. There can be confidential information in some applications, but, as you said below, applicants do not have to share everything in their public version.
That said, my guess is that this will make the forum less enjoyable/useful for the average reader, rather than more.
I guess the opposite, but I do not know. I am mostly in favour of experimenting with a few applications, and then deciding whether to stop or scale up.

Hopefully grantees can opt-in/out as appropriate! They don’t need so share everything.
