Hi Mateu,

That should be http://sharedmind.blogspot.com :)

You mention that the calculation of symbol ids can be done as a 
pre-compile build step or by the Nebula build system, which way did you 
implement it?

This sounds interesting, but since it's a change to the core we're going 
to have to figure out how to proceed. I'm going to write up some options 
this evening.
