The logo uses 'cellML' - I guess the person to ask is Poul, but I'll use
'CellML' for now.

These were typos. I don't make grammar mistakes :)

? Are you referring to the URL?

Okay changed to "free / open source"

Have a look what I've written here. Its hard to describe what we want to
do with PCEnv in a hundred words so if you have any more tips I'm all ears.

File attached again.
