Right. I would keep it as a separate list. Its items could be: 1) [later] referenced from the AGI project list (possibly from sections 4,5,7,8,9,..). 2) nominated/suggested by authors (or automatically by the system based on section 14,15,.. keyword-matches) for use in a particular AGI project. It would be nice if the system had features for reporting similar efforts by independent groups.
