From the Author Team
Its been a great week, with lots of new evidence mapped and connected to relevant elements. The authors have spent some additional time on the backend of the AIR-SPJ process to make sure that elements were getting connected with evidence as logically and accurately as possible. We are working on 2 paths right now: 1) adding and connecting evidence to elements, and 2) making the platform work as efficiently as transparently as possible.
