Closing Remarks

For community members who are reading this, I humbly thank you for your enthusiastic contributions! However, there seems to be a large influx of contributions recently, and it might take time for our staff to get through them all. Further, due to the Return to Vana'diel Campaign, our official project activities will be suspended until Monday, March 9th. We thank you for your patience.

Staff who do not have consistent access to retail are encouraged to use this time to perform any research they have planned. Staff may still work with the community and review Pull Requests, but are not expected to do so.

For Staff members, in regards to new Pull Requests that may come in this next week, please be mindful that other staff may wish an opportunity to review a Pull Request after the Campaign ends.

We will not be meeting next week.
