Dr. David Hochfelder, Associate Professor, State University of New York, Albany, is an historian of technology who has written on the history of the telegraph. I asked him to review the submission. He finds the proposed Milestone to be "clearly significant" technological achievement, and that documentation provided to be in order, and supporting the claim. |

Starting the approval process -- John Vardalas (talk) 19:38, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
I have been tasked with overseeing the examination of this Milestone proposal, and hopefully its final approval. As a starting point, I have asked three recommended experts, external to the History Committee, to assess this submission. When I have their results back I will post them on these discussion pages. Further discussions will then depend on the substance of the expert opinions.
