<div dir="ltr">So William,<div><br></div><div>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.

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. </div><div><br></div><div>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. </div><div><br></div><div>I hope this makes sense now and you know your next move.</div><div><br></div><div> Jacob</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, May 18, 2021 at 9:57 AM William Waites <<a href="mailto:wwaites@ieee.org">wwaites@ieee.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><br>

<br>
I agree. But I am also now completely confused about which document it is ok for who to edit when.<br>
