WCEU Contrib day ideas for the speaker series workshops, to be lead by @tinat:

1. Fixing some of the workshop material errors
2. Changing some of the workshop material with better methods I have learned since then -> These won’t go into the workshop right away. They will be branches, I think?

I had also originally thought of the idea of doing translations, but from further discussions it sounds like it may be too early in the process and the work would need to be repeated later… Open to discussing.
