Hi all, a month ago I posted the question below on Evoldir. I'll make available all answers. You can download a compiled PDF here: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/40499866/summary.pdf . There is also an extensive list of article PDFs that were attached or suggested. You can find instructions for download all of these papers in the compiled PDF. Thanks for all your input! This is amazing! If you have further questions or comments, let me know. Right now we have not integrated all comments into our paper but this will happen over the next months (it is summer now and everybody gone for holidays...)
