    Pretty well, thanks. I was planning to submit this Friday, but a couple of things are going to prevent that. First, I'm off to the Scottish Learning Festival tomorrow (which means I won't be able to work on it for a couple of days). Second, I've found more minor corrections than I thought I would.

    A note on my method for minor correction-spotting. Digital documents are great for writing and editing, but not for seeing the bigger picture. I needed a lot of space to blu-tack up nearly 300 pages, so I went into work on Saturday and Sunday and spent 10 hours in total going through my thesis with a fine toothcomb:

    My thesis as it stood a couple of weeks ago is available at http:/dougbelshaw.com/thesis. Once I've submitted, I'm planning to turn it into a wiki at http://neverendingthesis.com :-)
