Super Soyuz Update
A Russian publication (Lain, your Cyrillic is much better than mine: Is it something like Lerviy Canal?) has published a picture of the proposed 6-person Russian spacecraft which could be the successor to Soyuz. The link I've posted is a Babelfish translation of the page, which is always of limited reliability, but from what I can make out, it appears that the Super-Soyuz and the Russian Soyuz craft that I've posted about recently may actually be the same vehicle, which is reassuring (though makes me wonder about conflicting details of the two vehicles--particularly regarding orbital duration). Also, in this article, RKK Energiya says that, given funding, they could produce the new article in 5 years. Addendum: Alan Boyle talks about the Russian Space Clipper in his Cosmic Log today, and once again, the details don't entirely line up.
