I am looking for pointers to references to the Hearsay-II project. The most up-to-date reference I have found is dated 1977 (IJCAI). Are there any reports regarding current work on the project? I am mostly interested in reports generated by the researchers themselves, as opposed to popular press or student papers. I haven't made much of an effort at a literature search yet and thought this forum might be a good place to start. Thanks in advance for any references.
