Daniel,

Your are one of a number of folks who have used Cohousing-L and its
subscribers as a resource for books, articles, academic research etc over
the years.  This is certainly welcome of course but sometimes we never get
the the benefit of your efforts back via the list. 

I would encourage you to post some sort of results, draft whatever at some
point to cohousing-L.

BTW I'd encourage you to elaborate a bit on what you have in mind
for sustainability.  This seems to me to be elusive concept 
particularly in specific implementation.
