Hi dear Mark and Farah,
Sorry for the late reply. I didn’t write back earlier because travel, jetlag, inconsistent internet, since I arrived yesterday evening in Dawson, YUKON! where I will be in a residency for some / most of this month. So actually, for the time difference, it’s no problem! I got this :)
But first of all, THANK YOU so much! It’s no problem at all that you took a while to reply, I got the auto-replies, so I figured it would be a bit of time until things were addressed. I do hope that Max can set up this additional functionality, because it would ease my mind considerably for double-checking redactions, and would make navigating this work much easier.
Second, thank you for setting something up with Jordon. I would love to meet with her and you. Having some help going through this redaction material would be amahzing. My availability is a bit up in the air, since I am in this new place for research (offline, hiking to gold-mines amongst bears and forest fires), and the internet access outside of the house in indeterminate / unlikely. But if you pick a date and time, I will be there.
And finally, Mark, to answer your question about content. Lauren and I expect another chunk of content to be ready mid-Month, at which point we will hand it over to Jessica to proof-read. We are gunning for turning over the bulk of the material by mid-September at the very latest.
