phase engine work

hopefully i'll be posting a phase engine alpha build within say a month (enough time for me to get something together, as little as it will be).. right before i head out to LA for a weekend vacation.

jon has some free time now to work on zero, we'll see how that pans out.

i'll have to see if randy has time to fiddle with zero, however much like most of us, he works too much to be healthy.

anton and i most likely will sit down and do some design work prior to going crazy on coding... or not, time shall tell.
