proposal writing

Friday and all weekend was taken up with proposal writing, which is still on-going. A lot of the proposal is about replacing astronomical single-point estimates (that is, arithmetic operations on the data that produce a single estimate of a quantity, like a maximum-likelihood estimate of an object's position) with a probabilistic treatment (that is, a full likelihood function or a posterior PDF over the position).
