Status Report
I've been away from biohack.me for quite some time, and I'd just like to update everyone on my whereabouts and activities.
Recently I help found an iGEM team at my school, and I am currently in the process of fundraising for our projects next year. At present time we number about 30 students, and 2 professors (Computer Science and Genetics). I am currently pushing two separate projects that will allow you to constantly update your genome without compromising existing code (I will spare you guys the details) which may allow for easier modding. Unfortunately this will take some time, and the return on this project may be long-coming. With that said, I will take specific requests for relatively simple mods and I will have them looked into by my team - unfortunately due to cost and logistics that isn't a definite promise that you'll get your hands on the mod you want .
Thank you for your time

Is there any chance you could push for an open-publishing standard for the group? I know it's very easy to ask from my nice comfortable spot on the sidelines, but I also think the re-democratizication of science is an incredibly important aim, one we should advance at every opportunity. And being able to read the actual work rather than Gizmodo's interpretation of it is key.
Good luck with the competition!
