We did a preliminary assessment of the first pilot's outcomes in December,
with very promising results (50+ new articles created, 10+ articles
promoted to GA, and solid plans for continuing work).  Our plan is to
conduct a more detailed evaluation in August/September and include those
results in our annual report.
