Aoidoi: on Hiatus

It should be obvious from the lack of posts here and updates to Aoidoi.org itself that I've not been producing work for the site much in the last to years or so. So, I'm declaring Aoidoi.org officially on hiatus.

I have no plans at all to take the site down, and I hope some day to have time to work on documents for it and Scholiastae again in the future, but right now Life is keeping me occupied with other things.

Neighbors watch on as I

dash out the door while the
furry fiend flees.

Scholiastae: Alciphron 2.6 and 2.7
