Any recent surveys of molecular nanotechnology?...

Assuming anyone is still reading this newsgroup anymore, I'm interested in
suggestions or pointers on finding any nanotechnology survey articles (or
close facsimiles.) In my mind, such survey articles would attempt to
address two or more of the following:

0) Author's decomposition and brief description of the elements of a
nanofactory or assembler for reference later in the article.

1) What milestones have so far been passed toward molecular nanotechnology
and how they relate to any of the elements.

2) What lab techniques have been developed and are current.

3) Who in the world is (or was) working on any of the elements or their
prerequisites.

4) An up-to-date bibliography of important and/or relevant research papers,
books, and such publications.

I definitely haven't kept up with the progress of molecular nanotechnology.
Before I spend countless hours sifting through vast wads of cruft doing my
own survey, I thought it would be advisable to first see if anyone had done
that dirty work anytime in the last, oh, five years or so. Or even ever,
for that matter!

I would also appreciate suggestions on journals, books, or websites that
are "dense" with respect to references to technical articles on experiments
and theory related to molecular nanotechnology. I already know about more
than a few but no harm if people point out sources of which I'm already
aware.

Hi Jim.
I still keep an eye on both newsgroups, although i don't feel capable
of contributing / participating anymore.
(I guess I was put off by the last response, which didn=92t seem to
understand =91brainstorming=92, and insisted on a level of learning I
simply do not possess and am unlikely ever to do so.)

Anyway - Good luck on your hunting, i suspect you'll have a lot of
digging and wading :-)

Here's a link to one that I check everyday. It is by some unknown guy
by the name of Eric Drexler, but he seems to have a passable knowledge
about nanotech.

Some people are still reading, but I think the quality of the postings
to the group has fallen so far that it drives away what interest
remains.

I'm thinking I may set up a new mailing list devoted solely to true
molecular machines/molecular manufacturing since this group seems to
mostly be about postings from semi-fraudulent computer science
"conference" scams. I may do that by the end of July. Interested persons
may want to contact me.
