Hrm. This would be a really, really good use for the SKDB project I was 
proposing. Otherwise all of that information is going to be stuck in a 
wiki format and not be entirely functional. Just need to write a few 
python classes to represent the different types of entities, and then 
write up the protocols in a standardized language so that the parts can 
be fabricated, or otherwise strung together, for a physical, actual 
project [none of us want the data to just 'sit there' being dead].
