I have a page with a panels layout, and I want users to be able to post updates to that page in one of the regions.

We are working on a project and this panels page is like the central portal for the project.

I want a form people can fill out that will post the comment or "update" to the region, so that recent updates to the project are always shown on this panels page.

How can I accomplish this?

just create a node with comments enabled, then add the node with the panels context (I think its context) then in the region add the comment form.

Sorry for the bad description but I hope this helps you.

I found a different way, I created a content type called [projectname]-updates

and then created a view that would put the updates into a table with author name, the update text, and time the update was posted, that would sort them by date, and in my navigation project sub-menu I have a link to create a new update...

This way it seems less like a "comment" and more like an official project update, very flexible to add extra content to the updates or change the way they are displayed this way as well.
