Thanks for the stats Mike. Actually the points were pretty 
self-explanatory. I had a rough
idea about 2 and thanks for the rest. I was headed in the wrong 
direction because this project idea needs a proposal that answers 
"why" questions and not "how/when" questions. I think you know 
your insight was key in this discussion. It's an interesting 
topic and given that I will have time, I will tackle it GSoC or 
not so wait for further contact :). I think this thread is a good 
place to report progress.
