Well, I'm on the west coast of the US, so participation is out -- but
I'd absolutely love to see the results.  The code could be published
as a sort of Rosetta Stone for web frameworks.  Though I wonder
whether you'd get better results if people used their framework of
choice, or if they had to use a framework they didn't know...
