Mitsubishi 635nm LD Optics Correction / Power Output Development

I wanted to offer this thread as a compilation of links to the individual and related threads for active development of the Mitsubishi 635nm LD beam profile for optics correction and power output increase. I know progress is being made on many fronts and my intent is to facilitate a directory listing as an aid to those most interested in following the progress. Let me know if I've missed any within the list below I've collected so far.
