It’s been a long time coming, but we are very proud to present the second official Edit Club edit!

The ideal is one edit every month or so from each of our contributors, but the chances of everyone sticking to that the entire time are small. We’ll see how it goes.
But in the coming hours/days/lunar cycles, expect things from the likes of:
