This directory holds curated contributor-facing reference notes.

These notes are public repo-native artifacts. They are not imported source
material and they are not replacements for lab pages.

## What belongs here

* source maps for future lab topics
* bounded comparison notes
* short reading roundups
* contributor briefings that help future drafting

## Current notes
