Hi Scott,
Thanks for the reply: you are the nearest Rev developer to me that I know 
of.  I have a long-time friend and Rev developer (Roger Guay) who resides 
just east of Redmond WA but currently is spending quality time in Montana.  
Along with more friends split up across the world (thank God for Skype!!) 
we've had a lot of fun doing technical R&D projects (mainly aviation based) 
and of course CBT.

Roger and his wife Pat have developed a very nice ID tool in Rev called 
Maximus Curriculus which is currently being used by the Seattle Girls 
School.  I really only provided moral support, so I can't lay claim to it, 
but know it reasonably well.  It takes the taxonomy's of Bloom, Medina, La 
Bel and the like, and analyzes the content of the course, providing feedback 
as to its quality based on the principles of those.

You can take a look at it at http://homepage.mac.com/yogitrish/SGSMaxCurr/   
Pat and Roger are just great people but unfortuantely do not give themselves 
enough credit.  On the site you will see a lot of information about the 
development process and the interaction with ERAU (Embry Riddle Aviation 
University) , but I don't think it gives sufficient justice to themselves 
who had to solve the problems of dealing with academia as well as the 
technical ones.  I must stress that the preceding is just my opinion, and 
one that is definitely not shared by Pat !!

best, Bob...

Bob,
Fascinating. That sounds like quite the project!  By the way, we're
practically neighbors.  I'm just across the border in Bellingham, WA.
