This is a message I just sent as it appears things are snowballing
forward.

One other worry-- the Feb 23 to Mar 7 gap will be a serious problem for
follow-up of supernovae discovered in a Jan 11 search. (I don't know
what cadence of follow-up Adam has in his program, but it would
interfere with the plans that we have in ours.) I would like us to
explore the possibility of moving everything back so that the first
activation was on March 11, and another activation was added at the same
spacing after the last one. How would observability be for these fields
into the beginning of Sepetember (which is where follow-up would extened
if we don't start until March 11)?
