I'm just providing a short update: First of all, this project made it into GSoC - this means that I will work full time on crantastic.org for three months this summer! I hope to get to implement a lot of the great ideas that has been submitted. It's also great that people keep adding ideas to http://crantastic.uservoice.com/pages/14786-general , and also take the time to vote on the ideas they like the most. We're not far away from actually getting new features published to the site (http://crantastic.org/) - a bunch of stuff is already implemented in the development branch [1]. We're currently in the process of setting up a blog which will be used to provide progress updates and status reports, etc. The URL will be announced at a later stage.
