How to discuss an uploaded file?

I want to be able to have a discussion about an uploaded file (for example a discussion about a design proposal uploaded as a file). I want to do thi in connection with the file. Is there a way I can do this or can I in some way connect a writeboard with a file?

It sounds like something alot of people want to do so I hope I’m just not realising how to do it…

I’ve made it a policy to not simply upload a file to the Files section. I encourage users to create a Message and upload the file that way. It’s still available in the Files tab, but this way you have a forum to discuss the file, any new versions and revisions.
