Noah,
You know my opinion on a book dedicated ;-)
I must finish the layout of the book by the way!
It may be a good idea to do this on a Wiki or on a dedicated web page.
But who would decide who should appear on this Hall of Frame Newton?
According to what criteria will they be eligible?

I would think in our case it would be more similar to “Defying Gravity”, a big coffee table book with photos and history.

>> I know Sylvain has expressed interest in the book aspect, but I think that it would have to begin as a wiki or other online website first in order to gather and edit the material. Does anyone think this would be a good idea, has anyone tried before?
