So William,

For now, you should just claim the sections you wish to edit - I think your
name is mentioned already, yet check out the rest of the sections. This
will give John a picture of who he has to satisfy when he makes edits.

Once he has a full picture we can start actual editing. He will decide
where edits go - I suggested using the existing version so changes are
reflected in one location and we will have a traceable track of changes -
if he prefers another link it's fine - yet I asked him to secure the
document and provide links to older versions the document is derived from.
It is after all a paper about reproducibility. And I did experience
security issues in the past in collaborative work that needed treatment, so
this is why I asked for those. You really do not want an anonymous animal
using your public document as it sees fit - remember that our conversations
are public as well as the links.

He promised 2 weeks and I do not envy him if he has to go through the
history of contributions and locate authors who contributed to each
section, this is why we are declaring what sections are are interested in -
Sheriff suggested this yesterday. So please just look at the sections John
mentioned with his numbering and declare what you want to edit. Once we all
claimed sections, John can more easily decide what to edit and how without
facing potential objections.

I hope this makes sense now and you know your next move.

          Jacob
