There will be more stuff coming out of this. I know Grant quite
well, we've published a few papers together, and you can expect more
research on this topic (from him, not me).

What he presented at the Summit was preliminary findings. He had
finished his data collection (interviews) shortly before the
conference. So at present he hasn't written any formal papers on
this. But it is coming.

Further, I know that the reception his work got at the Summit means
that (a) he'll be trying to get back to that conference, (b) he's
interested in finding ways of communicating his research to the IA
community whenever it's relevant, and (c) he just got a big research
grant, so this and other work will continue.
