I've been travelling. The HiveMind documentation explains the
mechanics of HiveMind but not the theory and design, or even the
real-world practice. What's needed are some real-world examples, that
include the time element ... showing how, you code, and test, and
refactor even over a short period of time.

I've been, ah, busy working on a fairly comprehensive example of just
how far you can push HiveMind; I've been calling it Tapestry 4.0 :-)
