That's a great collection. I'll stay tuned to it.

We could present a package of information describing uses for the scythe on
your typical permaculture community, homestead and farm. Peter's website has
much of this info; no need to reinvent the wheel on much of this. I hope to 
contribute
a documented (text, photos, diagrams and videos) system for using scythes in 
raised bed
homestead gardening and market farming.
