DSO report-writing: Laura and I are writing the report in a series of InDesign files. We've been talking to Mark Staplehurst about helping us with design. Need to follow up with him now that we're back.
DSO convening planning: We've been working with Sarah and Erika on shaping the convening. It doesn't require much from this team at the moment, but I'll keep you posted.
DSO priorities: Shipping the report. Shipping the heck out of it until it's shipped. Ship it good. Also, wrapping up partnerships and contracts.
