If this can be made practical then this new development will be a very big
deal, in fact about as big a deal as deals get. And as far as I can tell
there are no scientific roadblocks, just engineering difficulties. They're
virtual 2D Nonabelions not real ones but as far as making a topological
quantum computer is concerned that distinction is not very important.
