Weekly update 15/11/06

* Submitted ADASS paper
* Currently moving the fastem algorithm off hempriggs. In the process
I'm upgrading to a new version supplied by CMU that doesn't require user
intervention when things go wrong, thus making the web service more
reliable. Unfortunately, this new version has a slightly different
interface, so it's not a straight drop in replacement.
* Given access to all CMU's algorithms
* Tony has asked me to lead a bid to join the U&I CofP. Email
attached. Deadline is next week, shouldn't take too much work.
Co-conspirators are Elizabeth A and Norman.
* Upgraded the Workbench Plastic library and made some fixes
