One immediate worry: for the projects that are up to date, I am concerned that we would be asking the authors to jump through a new set of hoops, when they've already jumped nicely through the hoops that we specified before. Can we not do something using the existing format (assuming that the records in that format are available somewhere), so as not to require resubmission of equivalent information?
