A forum for conversations about published paper

Q:
I saw your paper "Structuring supplemental materials in support of reproducibility" and appreciate your points. I would love to see a forum (like GATK’s forum or StackOverflow) where each topic for a conversation thread is a single published paper. Then everyone who is trying to replicate results could post their questions and authors their answers for all to see. I think this would be much better than the current closed system of emailing the authors. I would love to see a day when a link to a forum is provided on papers, rather than the authors’ email addresses.Who would have the ability to make something like this get started and catch on? Do you know if they are thinking about funding a platform for something like this at the NIH?
