We had a good time discussing methodology and perspectives. People quickly get an idea of what might be possible for future research once the map and database are available.

The Road goes ever on and on
down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then?
I cannot say.

(J.R.R. Tolkien)
