Thank you so much for the feedback on this. I just implemented some updates that should better track our iterations and changes to the project. Obviously, GitHub does some tracking, but I've added some more formal updates.

Additionally, I completely agree on the OCR issues. Long-term, the goal is to use higher quality OCR and a broader set of data to make this even more accessible to people.

I'll note that the primary goal is as much scholarship as it is giving access to hobbyists or people interested in the data itself. If the data could get to the point where it is scholarly useful, of course that would be something I'd like to achieve.
