Who then would be the authors of such a publication, surely it would have to
contain the names of very person that committed code to "core modules",
otherwise it wouldnt be fair.

You guys program this and that, we ll write the paper and future references
will be to our paper.

If anyone is interested and wants to contribute to any set of core modules
in your spare time (like I m interested/planning on doing) then I do want to
have some small measure of credit for it and not really be adding to
someones publication count. Im sure this must of been an issue at some other
point in another project/idea like this before, does anyone know how this
was resolved?

*I honestly don't expect to see significant bodies of code hitting the
community Web site in the form of tutorials.  I think a license for core
library modules that go beyond simple code or interface spec can be
discussed if and when we actually have some code up for review ;).
*
Speaking of tutorials what sort of topics would be good tutorials for the
community site?

You mentioned last week (I think) that you were planning for having a basic
core spec ready soon, any information/timelines on that?
