Hi everyone, I couldn't resisit being the first to post in this brand spanking new forum, so here's some useful information. Mainly it will interest Australians, but hopefully others will derive some benefit from it too.
Department of Primary Industry (NSW) Honey Bee Home Page
Lots of Useful Information.

Most of the information here is available in the links below:

I think the best resource is the Australasian Bee Manual by Isaac Hopkins. But it's been out of print for about a century... I have two editions. The 1911 and the 1886 edition. Both are excellent. The 1911 edition has the "Hopkins" method of queen rearing in it.
Here is the queen rearing section:
