    Summary
    We will present our campaign to estimate the projected spin-orbit angle for transiting hot Jupiters, obtained via observations of the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect. Combining our results to those of other teams we show what the current distribution in projected spin-orbit angle is, quickly reminding what interpretation we make of it. Finally we will show early results from a campaign that we initiated, surveying the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect on transiting SB1 intended to provide a comparison sample to the transiting planet's results
