Sorry for my silence... let me try to connect us up (Manu: you'll take
point ;), get a copy of the source code for Melvin and others to review and
'work magic' (tm) ;)

John Henry Clippinger of ID3 and a research scientist at the MIT Media Lab
Human Dynamics Group, will be at the London Blockchain workshop later this
month:

Unfortunately I won't be able to go to it but Primavera will be there
(since she's organising it) ;)

Primavera: Perhaps could you also help connect us up with the ID3 folk?

Cheers,
