It is tremendously gratifying to see others
around the world experimenting with the simple methanogenetic solution
to solving public health, energy water and waste problems. If only we
could dispel the common myths that these technologies require animal
wastes and/or are only appropriate for rural environments. Urban planners take note: it is time to unplug our cities from centralized
suppliers of energy, water and waste disposal services and harvest the
urban environment instead.

You're most welcome. That article is referenced today on the Make Magazine Blog — I'm trying to register with them so I can post a comment and point them your way also. (I've hailed them a couple of times previously on the subject but no response.)
What do you think to creating a blog or web page dedicated to the digesters as a central info ... See Moresource?
I'm thinking - an overview of the process and technology as it stands then other pages describing the research work that is being done -design, bacteria, technology etc.

I love the idea. Wouldn't have time to do it myself right now, but would be happy to contribute! I think it is very important -- such a simple yet effective technology; if we could get it deployed worldwide in the next couple of years to solve most of the energy/waste problems we could move on to tougher things, like clean water (which biogas admittedly helps with!).
