Could we avoid using this thread for discussions, and just use it as a wiki-style reference...
I will update the list as I become aware of any new publications.
If any new papers are published, then anyone can post them below.

Great idea to have these in one place!
What about published articles that take issue with PACE? Should that have a sister thread perhaps?

I think that would be handy, but it would be a quite a lot of work to collate such a list. (Perhaps it could be done as a team-effort.)

To clarify I was thinking of articles (like Tom K's on Harms, etc.) - not submitted comments.
