Donald,

Kellyn listed a number of great resources of which I've used I think all of them. Are you looking just for help on various items or some sort of starting point and perhaps "best" practices (or at least what some of us have done and how it's worked)? If you want I could share a quick rundown on how we've defined various items, in case that'd help.
