Dear Collaborators,

The data-taking portion of the d2n program wrapped up on schedule Monday
morning.  Overall we collected about 66% of the kinematic settings we
hoped to measure during this shortened run period.  That is about 50% of
the PAC approved data.

However, I believe the data we do have should be of very high quality
and it still covers the vast majority of the x and Q2 range we set out
to map, so I am really looking forward to digging out the physics and
seeing what we can find!

We're not quite out of the Hall yet though.  The target group has begun
work on roughly 2 weeks of post-run target calibrations and field
measurements that need to be completed before the experiment is
officially off the floor.

** On behalf of spokespeople I want to sincerely thank all of the folks
   who are local, and those who jumped through all the COVID-related
   hoops to travel here to support our program in these difficult times!
   We also thank our remote ANL collaborators who were effectively
   on-call at all hours and supported our software and analysis needs!

   While the demands of the program didn't change at all, there were far
   fewer resources available to meet them.  That made for a lot of very
   long days and nights, and put a huge amount of responsibility on our
   extremely hard working grad students and post-docs.

   They all did a fantastic job!  We all know we couldn't run an
   experiment without them, but this time the intensity knob got
   dialed to 11 and they still shone.  *Thank you!!*

Now, on to analysis and writing :-)

All the best,
-- Brad
   On behalf of the d2n spokespersons!
