Awesome, thank you all for replying! It is great to see such interest, let's make it happen.
Should we set up a Hangout call to kick start the work? Are you all available e.g. tomorrow at 11.30am PST? If it is a very short notice, please propose alternative dates; however, it would be great to start quickly so we have enough time. Among others, we should discuss ideas about the overall tone and structure of the paper. I volunteer to write some minutes and share them later on with those who cannot join. In the meantime, I will set up a git repo that so we can get to work on the paper.
