[rufuspollock]

@tfmorris i've booted this issue to follow up discussion on last hangout. Was really exciting to hear about the progress and the research and would be great to get a short post about it. wdyt?

Happy to write a blog post, but I wanted to get the preliminary processed HTML pages on hosting for people to look at first. Of course, when I started on that, I wanted to fix up the text block merging code to perform better -- and so it goes. I need to get the next release of OpenRefine out the door, but I'll see if I can get a blog post written in the next week.
