The editor, Dinis Cruz, in the conductor's session, about 13:53 UTC on 5 November 2026, with a one-page PDF mock-up made by the newsroom journalist and the other team's designer (kept at lab/experiments/76-title-page/mockup-from-the-newsroom.pdf), while the team was paused (PA1). Kept as given. Never edited.

> Actually, one more little thing. Do you think we can squeeze still quickly? Maybe you can do it here. This page as the second page of the book. I asked the journalist on the, and the designer on the other team to have a go. I think this will look quite nice because again, it gives a nice visual element on this. What do you think?
>
> So this is instead of that very white page that we have right now, which for me feels very traditional. And I think it would be cool if it's something a bit more like this.
>
> So this replaces the current 1st page of the book

> The one that currently only has the title

## How the conductor reads it (not his words)

- **TP1**: the mock-up replaces the plain title page (the page with only the title, the first page of the print interior and the page after the cover online), with its "MOCK-UP" label removed and nothing else changed. Done by the conductor at his word ("Maybe you can do it here"), outside its usual scope, while the team is paused: lab/experiments/76-title-page/, a "#! title-page:" line in the full book's list, and the line's handling in publishing/build_book.py. The page count is unchanged (123 in the print interior), so the opening spread still faces on pages 2 and 3.

> Very cool, yes that looks great
>
> And the black cover stays the same

(His answer on seeing the built print interior. The cover, front, spine and back, is unchanged.)
