Chandrayaan and LRO are expected to work in tandem in lunar orbit.
Radar signals sent from Mini-SAR on the chandrayaan are expected to picked up my the Mini-RF on the LRO.
I read this in todays paper but cant find the article.NASA and ISRO officials are working it out.They said that such a joint experiment will boost their chances of finding water-ice.

Indian newspaper often report about regular conferences encompassing the entire Chandrayaan team(including foriegn agencies) where information from chandrayaan is discussed and analysed.So i guess the lack of information has to do with poor PR skills of ISRO.

Considering that the chandrayaan carries one the highest resolution cameras ever to image the lunar surface, it would be fun if any of the apollo hardware or other the lunakhod rovers are pictured.

Well it seems that the camera onboard the MIP performed well.It has generated about 15000 video frames which is going to be turned into a movie showing the entire descent phase of the probe.
Here is the article.

Firstly thanks Z for keeping us all in the know about chandrayaan.Isro has done a very good job,everything has gone perfectly.
I have some questions and i would be grateful if anyone can answer them.
Can anyone tell me what was the resolution of the camera carried by MIP?
At what altitude were the pics taken?

Chandrayaan has entered into into a orbit which is 102 kms above moons surface,very close to final orbit.
the details are in this article.
