Hi all,

A few virtually insignificant things on this.


Intro (?):
January 1 2000 ->  1 January 2000
(or ->  January 1st 2000)

December 31 2000 ->  31 December 2000
(or ->  December 31st 2000)

Yeah, fixed.

ERRATA SPRINTS:
Slowly, we continued through the months ->  Slowly, we continued through the 
months
(Maybe. I'm not quite sure what you're trying to say here.)

Altered the wording to: "As each week passed, more of these troublesome problems were fixed. We paused..."

WEBSITE&  EXPERIMENTATION:
As far as the look and feel of the books goes ->  As far as the look and feel 
of the books go

Fixed.

NEW VERSIONS:
It has also proved to be extremely useful for editing purposes, to have all the 
text displayed on one page. ->  It has also proved to be extremely useful, for 
editing purposes, to have all the text displayed on one page.
(Or remove the comma already there.)

Altered the wording to: "Having all the text displayed on one page has also proved to be extremely useful for editing purposes."

PDF:
Newsletters #10 ->  Newsletters 10
(Consistency with all other number in the same section.)

all the Lone Wolf released books (1–24) ->  all the released Lone Wolf books 
(1–24)

Fixed.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION:
Figures like this usually look better if the digits (but not the currency 
symbol) are right-aligned. That way, like appears above/below like.


Summary (?):
Both as a group and as individuals, “The Aon Project” look
(Should this be 'looks'?)

No; it's implicit that "The Aon Project" is made up of a number of individuals. I think that's how we've edited the plural-vs.-singular stuff in the books? ;-)

All in all though, this is a good report, and I join the others in saying 
'thank you' and 'well done' to Simon for writing it.

Glad to know it's appreciated. As I said, I was surprised by how much was achieved this year, so I'm glad to have compiled this. And there may be a few more bits to come...maybe...
