Some quick notes in advance of the telecon - really more thinking points than anything.  The data that came out of OLAF looked pretty good to the reviewers.  I haven't actually seen it yet because it is behind a password barrier (a password I don't have) and I'm having flood-related connectivity issues trying to get it straight from disk space.  I'm still trying to work through that before the telecon.

These are fairly telegraphic, and largely focused down the road...

OLAF notes:

• Check – does OLAF scrub user input for problematic characters
  (‘&’, ‘>’, ‘<’)?  It seems to be doing so for ‘&’, at least.
• Note wavelength can be multi-valued.  Do users know that?
• Is there a “spectrum” profile?  If so, do we need to expand on
  this for Spectral Dictionary?
• Need to do something about creating and including overview
  documentation for all collections.  Can OLAF encourage this?

In addition:
  - Ongoing issues with bundle/collection naming and organization. Is
    there a way to deal with this gracefully without annoying users?
  - Product/collection versioning looms...
