I've been meaning to send a mail round with a summary of the current state of things, and what needs to be done going forward, but I haven't had the time since LPC to put that together (as e.g. that requires learning some more about SFrame).

I will get back to you on that in the new year; I think the specifics we want are going to depend on other details above we need to analyse first. Thanks, Mark.
