Round 1 of the editor's pen: the printed copies, the restart, pages 2 to 4

The editor, Dinis Cruz, in the conductor's session, 13 November 2026, with four photographs of his handwritten notes on the A4 review copy (pages 2, 3 and 4, and a close-up of page 4's margin; kept, with their file details removed, at src/static/assets/print-review/). Kept as given. Never edited.

Okay. Great news, like amazing news. So the books print okay, and they look pretty amazing. With A4. Of course, we're going to go with Crown Quattro. How's the thing there? We basically started a review of the process, which I'm going to give to you. I'm not sure if you've seen what we've done on the other book, but please take a look at it. I think we've actually, it was here that we did it, right? When I signed the screenshots. So I'll do the same thing here, where I'm going to give you the screenshots of my reviews, and then we can start making changes. So you start wiring up the team again, and start bringing everybody online, and let's start the loop, because I really want to get this book now in a good place, and I really want to now take it to the next level. So can you wire up the team, and I'm going to give you the feedback. So you can do the same thing what you're doing with, you try to recognize my handwriting. You put that on a page, so one page per block of reviews that I give you, and you start making the changes. So I'm going to upload here the first 3 pages. And actually, the other great news is I gave this, I shared in the book with a couple of people in an event, in the Web Summit, and one specific guy really, really liked it and spent quite a bit of time on it. He even said he was going to get some university to buy some copies of the book. And I actually gave him the book with the request and compromise that he actually made changes. So actually, I gave him the book in the condition that he would do stuff like this, make notes in the book, and he said, okay. So once we finish this page and you publish this page on the website and start making changes, I will send this that article, that page, right? So he can see that I mean it when I make notes on the page.

Let me know if this makes sense.

How the conductor reads it (not his words)

• RS1, the restart: the A4 copies printed well; the edition for sale stays Crown Quarto (KP1). The pause (PA1) ends at his word: every member's scheduled task is re-enabled and the loop runs again, with the editor's pen as its main input.
• PEN1, the editor's pen: each block of handwritten notes he sends becomes one public page (print-review-NN.html): the photographs, each note transcribed with uncertain readings marked, the team's reading, the owner and a state that the conductor updates as the changes land. Round 1 is pages 2 to 4, 30 notes (team/conductor/print-review/round-01.json). The Web Summit reader who took a copy on condition he writes in it will be sent the page.
• The handwritten-review process he remembers is not in this repository: this book's RC1 paper review (briefs/2026-10-31__rc1-paper-review/) was dictated, not photographed; the photographed process is likely the other book's.
