Unstructured authoring

The media team and our text editor are now engaging with the material, and there's the rather unholy task of pulling together a lot of material that was written at a gallop.  At the same time I'm going back to feed in what the critical readers have come up with.  Sections are moving around and titles changing and it was a little challenging this week to go through things section by section and see just how rough some bits are.

The good side of it is that this is all stuff the OU cares about.  There'll be at least 2 more passes through the material to ensure that it's good enough to go public between now and October, and a lot of effort to make sure things are consistent.  Of course even then a few small things will slip through, but I'm sure we'll be able to present students with material we can be proud of.  I can't wait.
