Hmmmmm, look just like the IRD Power Rachet shifters. http://www.interlocracing.com/shifters.html Rivendell calls them "Silver on Soma. I wonder what the genesis of this "project" was. Regardless, I love the idea of these shifters. The XT top mount shifters on my MB-1 were my all time favs. IRD makes a 9 speed indexed version too.
