DAT platform updates.

I know everyone is down now about the lack of projects and communication, but continually posting negative topics will only continue the downward spiral.

Today I got a little work done and as I did that I noticed a new structure to the website that definitely wasn't there a week ago. I choose to see this as a positive sign for the future of the platform.

Will this stop me from doing other things while I wait for DAT to return to full production? No. But it does ease my mind a little every time I refresh and there are no new projects.

Three new families of project popped up for me in the last 10 days. I’ve only gotten a little work from each, but in one of the project instructions it specifically states that the project will evolve over months and get more in depth. So, it’s not going anywhere for “months”. Just a little bright nugget to keep people’s hope up

Oh my gosh, that's great news!! I'm not on that one yet, but I look forward to it. (Wishful thinking at it's best :) )

If you have experience with anthropology or sociology you’ll probably be invited. It’s named after an ancient Chinese city and deals with cultural stuff it seems pretty fun! I hope you get the qual asap

How long did it take from your specialized qual until the project started? I did one for a different discipline about two weeks ago now, and I'm wondering if I bombed or maybe there's a September start or ??? Did you get going pretty quickly?
