I'm not sure how much influence I have, but I would be happy to make whispers in appropriate places to try to get more support, if that's helpful.

Perhaps you could show your work at the next Research and Data showcase? I for one would be interested in seeing a presentation.

This is an Encyclopedia
One gateway to the wide garden of knowledge, where lies
The deep rock of our past, in which we must delve
The well of our future,
The clear water we must leave untainted for those who come after us,
The fertile earth, in which truth may grow in bright places, tended by many hands,
And the broad fall of sunshine, warming our first steps toward knowing how much we do not know.

That is the question, and I agree with your conclusion. I'm hoping to
do more research into this; getting buyin internally has been tough,
but I'm confident of making progress on that front over the next few
weeks and months.
