I can’t tell if I’m the tortoise or the hare, but March 31st was a big day. My github logs show that I started the manual step of the transcript correction process December 1/2012, and completed it March 31/2014 (with big summer breaks in there). There are still many hours of missing audio material, but I’ve been in touch with the Johnson Space Center, Houston Audio Control Room and they’ve been very responsive and helpful. They assured me that the missing material was on their list of to-dos, and they’re aiming to start getting the missing material to me within the next few weeks. It feels good to get to the next step. I don’t need the missing material to begin post-processing of the corrected material. As new audio becomes available, it will mean more manual correction, then the re-running of the automated post-processing actions I’m about to write.
