Rec of the Week:
One of many things linked from the Acasta page (and if you haven't looked at their site, you really really should!): WikiPOBia - which it's the great annotation project of the world. (I haven't actually taken a look myself - yet! - but that there's a wiki for the Aubreyad is quite enough recommendation for me!
