@wdoyle42: This tracks with what I understood we were doing. Thanks for laying it out more specifically. I can imagine that as we move forward, we may modify pieces here and there, but the milestones seem right to me. A question and a comment:
Are you thinking that we work through the steps in order such that
I can see the benefits to either approach, but will throw my hat into the ring for the second approach.
For (4) we can set up an Rmd
template and batch create reports for many institutions like we did for states in the College Affordability Diagnosis. We could also set up a website / shiny application. Maybe we've discussed this already (?) so I'll just reiterate that I like the idea of a common template report --- pdf or webpage --- that we batch run for a number of institutions.
@btskinner I agree-- let's move forward with what we have, even if we're not completely done with previous steps.
I like the idea of a batch Rmd template.

Dear William, First and foremost, we hope this email finds you and your family healthy and well.
We wanted to reach out quickly to let you know that we have made the difficult decision to cancel the in-person element of useR! 2020. We really appreciate your willingness to be a part of this impressive group of presenters and we are extremely disappointed that we are not able to welcome you to St. Louis. We were (and still are) particularly proud of our slate of presentations (including you!) and we know from our interactions with the R community that they were very enthusiastic about learning from you as well.
This has been in process for several weeks, but we have not been able to share details publicly until today. We appreciate your patience with us as we have navigated our relationships with our venue, stakeholders, and partners.
We have not made any final decisions about what comes next in terms of useR! 2020. We’ll be working with the R Foundation and our organizing team next week to determine the best course of action for us to collectively take. We will be in touch soon about possible next steps.
I'd still like to use the same deadline/product that we had before--- an html based product that shows the predictive accuracy of different models in a substantive sense, to be ready by July 1. Is that still ok with everyone?
Here's my thoughts about milestones for the project-- I'm not stuck on these, just wanted to get them out there so we can discuss. The question is: are these the right milestones?
