PROGRESS
We have now coded/allocated for coding 31315 posts. Of the 31315, we 
have actually coded 29402, and rejected 18077 of these (61.4%).

This week we have coded 1004 posts, with 7 people working on the 
catalogue, and we have reached post 23000 on the main list.

ERRORS
Could you sort out the reject status on:

20849, 20910 (Debbie)
11053 (Kelly)

..and in case you are wondering if I ever figure on this list, I just 
discovered I coded 7 posts to the final chapter in OOP, at a point 
where not even GOF was published. Interesting train of thought..

GROUP MEMBERS
Dan's decided to leave the group, due to RL committments preventing 
him giving much time to our project. However, I am pleased to welcome 
Jo (Serenadust) from the FP/FAQ group, who is interested in helping 
and, um, finishing her own FAQ project by using our categories to 
find relevant posts...knew we'd be useful to someone in the end.

TECH STUFF
Tim has sketched out the beginnings of a screen design for searching 
the catalogue, which I have uploaded to our files section - it's a 
GIF file, hope you can all open it.

The idea is you drill across the screen from left to right, pulling 
up ever-more specific posts in the lower half of the screen.

This is just a sketch, no programming done at all, and plenty of 
refinements needed, including the requirement to search on multiple 
categories. Please feel free to comment. 

CATEGORY CHANGES
I re-fixed the Hogwart's pupils categories so that the individual 
character names are again picked out in blue. It was driving me mad 
not being able to pick them out.

Shortly, I will upload a new version of the definitions file to 
reflect all these changes.
