I am temporarily slammed with work this week due to a time-critical Linux project that came up unexpectedly, so unfortunately I did not have time to write a full Witness Wednesday. What I did have time for, however, was recording a video of the Lister Panel in action, which is something I originally wanted to post with the first Lister Panel installment, but couldn’t due to spoilers.
