This is almost exactly what I mean  :) Thanks muchly, Dunstan.

Bluntly, I was trying to say: get in touch with other groups, ask/find 
out what they are doing, don't re-invent wheels. Posting links is not 
enough because there is possibly a lot of work in other groups' pipeline 
that have not yet been formally published.

Maybe I should've just said that in the first place! Hehe.

cheers,
