Just a quick note about the correct credit for the Pandora Battery, and the relationship between Noobz and Team C+D.

Team C+D is the name that has been used for releases by the Prometheus project.  It refers to the full group of developers that were involved in the project, and was used as a means to make releases that wouldn't be associated with any particular public group.  Of course, it also allowed us to have a lot of fun with over-the-top release notes and stereotypical hacker posturing.

Bits of research from Prometheus went into various releases from Noobz and others, but public group names were generally used when the bulk of the work was done by one specific team, or when it was just more convenient. 

The authors of the Pandora release should be properly credited as either the Prometheus project, or Team C+D.  Places that have credited it as Noobz are incorrect - it is much more than simply a Noobz release.

My apologies if that wasn't clear enough in the release post.
