No  one should or will discourage you from developing a laser pumped  Rb. 
Bruce posted the following link. It addresses some of the issues and for me  
looking at lamp Rb's is most helpful.

Sorry i didnt mean to do that. I am very gratefull at  the work Corby
has done and the new insights on what error sources a Rb gas  cell
has.

But as someone living in europe, i have certain problems  getting my
hands on a HP5065. There is virtually no surplus market here.  And
if there is anything sold in europe, the price is nearly that of
a  new device, sometimes even more (no, i'm neither joking nor exagerating).
I  cannot buy any of the fancy devices you have access to in the US.
Buying a  Cs beam, as a few of you have, is a dream that will not come
true for me,  unless i win in the lottery.
But building my own Rb standard using laser  diodes is feasible.
I still lack a lot of knowledge and understanding how  to do that,
but this group has been very helpfull in filling my gaps, when  asking
the right questions. And if you don't mind, i would like to  keep
asking those questions.
