A decision on the shared kiln schedule should be judged at the common ceramic kiln at Reed Terrace, where the rule changes an ordinary route, shift or service. Compare this season’s measurement with the living site and the people who steward it. The current file is the Year fourth, budbreak window 3 review, not a permanent settlement of every future case.
The the firing board and the makers’ clay readiness cards lists 82 firings started within the posted window; the previous window lists 87. Sylva Reed checked both against field transects paired with the season and location of each reading. The difference matters because how to share a cooling period without giving one workshop permanent priority.
The old schedule alternates by week. Makers say clay readiness can change with the drying room temperature. Those objections deserve a clear answer. They are not a reason to keep an uncheckable rule simply because its wording is familiar.
A useful decision names who will do the work, which count will change and when the result comes back to the public table. In this case, two makers need the same slow cooling period for different clay bodies.
The board closed this docket after it adopted a revised schedule for the next measured window. The next window starts with a fresh record.
