It appears that everything Mike Farmer predicted about the crater and "recovery efforts" has become reality.

Jan Hattenbach visited the remainders of the crater a month ago, here his report and some pictures. http://kuerzer.de/Cara He writes, that the crater walls sank down, are much lower now and the bottom of the crater is almost totally silted up. The water inside is only a couple of inches deep. So the initial objective not to look for meteoritic material, but to preserve the crater instead, failed. All tourist/scientific projects will have a commemorative character.
