> This is the 1st pass of the 4rd chapter (#03). It's quite stub.

> This was a challenging sprint for external reasons. So i got less than the previous sprint. Also most of the work was in improving, refactoring, cleaning, and some for the next chapter. So this chap is a bit more bare-bones than i'd have liked. But in truth i always like more.
