That was what Pavilion (http://www.karitas.net/pavilion) was originally supposed to be for, but it kind of... disintegrated due to bad management in its first year. There never really has been an organized effort at getting it back up and running, although the pages are still there.
We've definitely thought about reviving it, since we were one of the groups who worked on the project when it was first put up, but then it gets kind of overwhelming to think of the sheer number of things we'd want to overhaul (and it's hard to edit the pages, too, because they were done with a page design program-- that's kind of a minor example of the bad management I mentioned).
It's also frustrating because our philosophy on educating people is somewhat different than it was five years ago, and in some ways, we're no longer sure how to approach it. I've actually thought about the possibilities of YouTube videos as a means of explaining our own realities to the world, though, as we've seen some really good ones along similar lines made by autistic people.
