I received communication separately from Jiangao Ruan and Wenjie Zhou that they are working together on analyzing the SOHO data, so their discoveries are considered as joint-discovery. (There has never been any limitation on working as part of a team for comet hunting, so this is completely fine.)

Once again we have a LOT of archive reports that I need to work through. I will probably save those until next month as I'm still catching up on other things this month. I will try and get the August confirmations done this week though.

Also, some people have been having problems getting emails to my NRL account. Unfortunately I do not receive any notification of blocked emails, so I have no way of knowing if you have sent anything. So if you contact me, please continue to use my NRL email addresses (below) but also cc the sungrazercomets address (also below) so that I know something was sent to me.

As always, reach out to me with questions or comments - sungrazer@nrl.navy.mil or karl.battams@nrl.navy.mil (and cc sungrazercomets@gmail.com)
