Matt, Yes, there already is a simple TM model which is based on LogTM from UWisc working in M5. But it has not been merged into the main releases. I'm currently the only student working on it, so progress has been slow, but steady.
I would be interested in some collaborative efforts to help maintain better support for what I have so far. What models for TM were you interested in? I can't see any potential problems as of yet with considering a collaborative effort. You can reach me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] if you would like to talk more.
