Sticky for Spinneret-specific code development

I wonder if Parallax could provide some kind of "sign-up board" Sticky to help reduce the chances of gurus duplicating their efforts on developing Spinneret code. I'd hate to see people bit-banging their hearts out on a particular process only to find somebody else was doing the exact same thing.
I'm sure the intent of the contest entry announcements was to reduce duplication, but while a contest entry might declare the final product, it doesn't necessarily declare the fine details of the approach, so I suspect a whole lotta software duplication is going on right now.
I'm suggesting a Sticky for which code has been finished, or codes that people are working on, something so that those newbies joining in a month or two from now can run their eyeball down the Sticky list and see what tools are already available. To my newbie brain, it would be nice to have a comprehensive list of Spinneret-specific code to look at and learn from rather than wandering around the OBEX in my usual clueless manner.
thanks,
Mark
