It is going to be a couple of months before I am able to join back in. I am trying to finish a bajor project before years end at work, and I have a second masters thesis to finish by the same time (which at this point might never be...)
If someone else can pick this up please do, otherwise I will after the work (and hopefully thesis) is done.
