I allready have a simple quick-n-dirty implementation running on our local mysql servers (using spades instead of pigeons), so it shouldn't be too difficult to phase this development into the main cvs-trunk later. The only problem I wasn't yet able to resolve reliably is to store the three possible values into one bit, hence I'm using two bits for the decision logic and call this three-valued boolean storage unit a 'peck'. But it's my feeling, that there must be better a solution; after all if a qbit can hold 4 values (as modern physics says), why shouldn't a peck be able to mark 3 possibilities (or even 4 if you count 'not-yet-pecked' as the fourth). Working on it.
