Thanks to all for your replies.  I've signed up at fastlane.nsf.gov
and am reading over the (insane amount of) docs between hack 
sessions ;-) 

If there is anyone out there who'd be willing to help with the 
inevitable questions I'll have, or if you're interested in 
collaborating on any projects, please contact me.

Thanks.
