@samth I fully agree with your email to Ben. Having said that, there are also enough serious problems with the artifacts that even with a decent set of reviews, it would get rejected.

I think that’s true

Like I said, we got one perfectly reasonable review and it was a Reject

@rjnw We need to start preparing your talk. Let’s schedule a weekly time for virtual meetings with at least me and Sam? What’s a good time for you that is during the Eastern Time day? And how’s your visa application going?

I think I can do either 11am or 12am which would be before work for me, I don’t have a preference for a day so you can choose. My visa appointment is on July 5th.
