Folks,
This is my first cut at a draft report that needs to be completed by Feb
5th End-of-day.

Please, please -- feel free to edit, revise or add comments.

Whimsy and other tool expect the report to formatted in a certain way so
please make sure that you try to:
        • Keep all lines under 76 characters long.
        • All content under the ### headings should be indented by two
spaces. Do not use tabs.
        • Please don't change the text in the headings or add new ones.
        • Include a space after a bullet point or full stop on a numbered
list.
        • Use [X] (X and no spaces) to sign off reports.

It might be easier if you give me the section and text you want to edit or
add to and I will merge it into a master markdown.

Thanks!

Lee.
## DataSketches

DataSketches is an open source, high-performance library of stochastic
streaming algorithms commonly called "sketches" in the data sciences.
Sketches are small, stateful programs that process massive data as a stream
and can provide approximate answers, with mathematical guarantees, to
computationally difficult queries orders-of-magnitude faster than
traditional, exact methods.

DataSketches has been incubating since 2019-03-30.
