[pure-silver] Concentrated developer progress?

 Did I dream this or was there mention of a concentrated developer being
worked on by Ryuji?  It seems that I have more and more sporadic darkroom
activities.  I enjoy the DS series' results and it might just be a
coincidence but lately it seems that every time I wish I could quickly get a
film done and drying, I don't have a batch ready to go.  This adds not much
time for a new mix but enough that it can sometimes delay the project until
another time when I do have the time.
I've been working on some things on my own and some ideas that have been
shared on APUG (can I say that here?!).  I'm struggling with a bit too
long/flat a toe but love the general results of some things that use
catechol/ascorbic acid.  I enjoy the smooth grain and retention of
"edgieness" at the same time and also, the nice highlight separation.  I've
come to the realization that I'm in over my head and wish I had paid more
attention in chemistry class in school (even though it's only been 30+
years).  As I increase energy levels, my fog goes up just enough to make me
struggle a bit with my darkroom equipment which is tailored to work best
withleast fog.

Are you thinking about this, Ryuji?  Are there any other tinkerers out
there?
