"First Exploration" Must Haves:
*Either complete, or delete, sentences that don't end (like the one on page 15 about Austin).
*The section that starts "Why" on page 16 has to get rid of your instructions to yourself and become a real section
*"Plot of this story" on page 17 has to be an actual section, not a numbered list
*"Examplars and Touchstones" as a bunch of unfinished sentences/thoughts. Those have to be fixed.
*On page 18 there are two random headers and then an image. The image needs to be put in context and the headers need to turn into sections or be deleted.

"The Stream" Must Haves:
*Take a look for any sentences that don't end and either finish or delete them.
*Is the final bullet in the Ruby Helper box on page 24 complete?
*Add some more detail to the "Running on the Cluster" section on page 27

"Chimpanzee and Elephant Save Christmas" Must Haves:
*Take a look for any sentences that don't end and either finish or delete them.
*Make the "The Reducer Guarantee" section on page 40 more than just bullet points - either give more context, or turn them into body text.
*Same for the "Partition Key and Sort Key" section on page 41
*Right now, the chapter just kind of ends, give it more of an ending. Turning the last section into a full section will likely help with this.

That's what we need to turn those chapters into the first early release of the book.

Thoughts on "HBase Data Model" chapter:

*The bulleted list on page 122 needs more context - some sort of intro or explanation rather than just starting it up.
*The "Note" on page 123 is much too long. Make it part of a section (or one of its own), and you can include the most "noteworthy" part of it as a smaller note within that.
*The first footnote on page 124 should be part of the text.
*Page 129 has unfinished sentences and a note that isn't a note.
*The note on page 130 should be part of the text.
*The note on page 132 is also much too long, also make that part of another sections, or its own, with a smaller note within.
*The bulleted list in the "IP Address Geolocation" section on page 135 needs context
*Does Table 16-5 really need to be its own section?
*"Review of HBase options" on page 137 needs to be a real section, not just bullets and todo's
*Same for "Feature Set review" and “Design for Reads”

Overall, this chapter looked really good. If you could also get these things done over the weekend, I'd like to make it part of the first release (give it some meat).
