Haha, yes, that's me. If you happen to come back and see this (not sure how I missed this for 5 months, but I don't hit the front page of the forums very often any more), here is a link to the last finished version of the document I published:

I halted updating the document back in 2010 because of the numerous bugs and broken features Apple introduced and, sad to say, *nothing* has been improved since then other than fixing the playlist order bug (although it has made numerous reappearances because they fail to update their library code).
What I do today is have the entire system on my desktop iTunes and merely sync over a series of large filtered playlists that I shuffle while out and about.
