Letting the picnicking cat out of the bag a little early

[hrj]

My time-table for launching the Historic Picnic Project is for after this weekend (so as not to get lost in the pre-12th Night shuffle). But astute readers who happen to peruse my Friends Page may notice the inaugural posting on the new Picnic Project LJ community. I'm currently getting files and things set up and ready to go for the launch. There will be an official announcement with pointers and links, probably on Sunday or Monday. You haven't missed anything yet.
