Dave, awesome!!! I am totally +1 on switching the posts to published on friday. But if you like I can switch the posts to published now ... I have a short time slot to do it.
Regarding the authors: I think everyone who has access to WP can fix the author if he likes. Thanks so much - the new blog will be awesome!
