My week's progress on admin/errors:

A lot of progress has been made, but we definitely need people to get used to github/tickets and update their progress more promptly. Not everyone updated tickets again. More general details towards the end!

Also, Mitar and I talked about making people each focus on a certain ticket or two instead of spreading themselves to thin, which sometimes lead to miscommunication. I think there may be a more efficient way to split work. For example, Rachel is taking on a lot of tasks and coordination, and if someone who had less work/finished a ticket could take on some lingering responsibilities (don't forget to make/assign ticket!), it would ease progress, equal out work-load, and facilitate coordination.
