Default Nanotubes progress ?

I am not sure if this is a real progress or just media hype
but it seems that reasearchers at the University of Cambridge/MIT
have made "a single filament, with a diameter of around five microns"
in a continuous process that produces "several centimetres per second":

Following some links I have found that this is a continuation of work
that was done in 2004:
