The book in release mode

A first release candidate from the first list, the rounds, the adversarial review board, and precedents. 14 panels.

draft 14 panels · gen-z.journalist, 19 October 2026, from Dinis's memo on release candidates and the review board · book v1.0.0 is the only official version; the second edition is in release candidates (rc1 and rc2 frozen). Every line the Guide says, and every quote card, is from the article 'The book in release mode', word for word; the build checks it. The readers' answers, the cutter's line and the precedent bars are the storyboard's illustrations.
