Homeopathy: Where on earth did this go?

Back in 2004, Randi mentioned what at the time sounded like rather an exciting project:
This protocol is interesting in that the homeopaths themselves will make the decisions on whether or not their patients received the "real" homeopathic substance, or the control substance. This will be a prolonged, thorough, series, with a very adequate database and a totally double-blind setup, done on an international scale.

To exhibit my good faith and co-operation, I've agreed that in this specific case, and this case only, the JREF will waive the necessity of the usual preliminary test for our million-dollar prize; this was the only way that we could get important people in the homeopathic community to become involved. Also, you should know that the major cost in carrying out this project, is paying the homeopaths.

But stay tuned….

Well, I stayed about half-tuned, and never did come across any mention of this proposed large-scale investigation ever again. Did I miss a memo?

I've tried searching on it, but the necessary search strings are so general.

Does anybody know what this turned into?
