Hi Professor Junker,

Thank you for your suggestions on project report in our meeting today. Here is a summary of our meeting:

Report format : 
Details in the Data section: 
Draft to Annika, NOT anonymize, bc (put at the top of the draft)its internal pls know company not anonymized, will be in the final report. Annika gets to make the decision
Finalize final deliverable format
6 reports (1 to Annika and 5 separate reports),
Asking about whether its doable, or just 1 report to Annika (double check)
Maybe not a whole report, but a sample. 5 short appendices (with this kind of data, here is what you can do etc)
For each appendix, map to each client or the entire audience, do we need to anonymize the data ? -- Annika
Technical Appendix: 
Include Data wrangling but not EDA: 
Make a summary of data wrangling in the main body of the paper
Discuss with Annika about what she would like to see (whether the technical appendix will be useful)
Length of the report: 
Meeting with Annika -- next Monday (Prof. Junker would be like to be at the meeting if that's helpful )
SWOT can talk about all data at once, not separate by company, will support the roadmap
Hard part is how to make balance between saying enough about interesting part to us and saying the part that the person who is reading it is interested 
Technical appendix helps the balance (eg, see pg. for more details )
Want to write the  technical appendix to ourselves that include all interesting stuff we have done and then extract from that the part that tells a story that is useful to Annika, and then share the long appendix with prof. Junker. -- by End Of Semester, not this Friday

We will deliver our project report draft by this Friday. Thank you again for the extension!

Best,
Yanxi
