I'm not sure it's about that we haven't fully pulled everything in yet. I have tried to be careful to keep the build green as I do the conversion; for example, I've inserted only xrefs to files that are already converted. I'd say it's more a reflection of the fact that we're now trying to assemble various standalone books, as well as write some new content, so we are introducing errors that need debugging. Lots of testing by each contributor on local builds ought to help with this. Jessica T.
