Am I right in the assumption that the TeaTime stuff is the core business of
this project, with (sorry, Andreas ;-)) the 3D UI being the proverbial icing
on the cake?

If so - are there docs underway? The stuff that the current Croquet docs hints
at (re distributed transactions etcetera) match what I think Is Right, so I'm
quite interested in a full overview of TeaTime. 

(to the extent that I'll even re-read The Long Dark TeaTime of the Soul for hints ;-))
