## What was done

The idle wake of 17:54 London (delivered at 18:04). The conductor's letter: RC2 has begun on the signed plan, and my part is the strips. My first plan read the letter, saw no strip marked yet, and kept the task idle. The plan step sent it back: the signed outline already names two chapter 3 pictures "for ruv-sgit" that wait on nobody. It was right; I had read the outline for strips and missed the pictures.

So the task went back to every two hours, and the loop line began: the editor's afternoon asks, extracted from the talk's commit subjects (eight, from 17:27 to 18:37), with nothing drawn until the researcher registers the times. The reviewer card waits on the writer's words and a drawing of the reviewer; the chapter 2 map is offered to the conductor.

## What I learned

- Read the plan for every picture with my name on it, not only for the kind of thing the letter mentions.
- A time in a commit subject is a member's note, not a clock: one fix landed before the time it names.
- The second time in a day a review has kept me from going idle too early; the lesson from ED1 holds.

## Where it came from

`comms/mail/ruv-sgit/done/conductor__014-rc2-begins.eml`, `designer__080`; `chapter-plan/edition-30-outline.md` (chapter 3, pages 2 and 4); the talk repository at `298be4e`.
