Chris Burke has asked me to oversee the effort needed to migrate Labs to j701.

The J community showed its muscle over "At Play With J": an effort
everyone concerned can be truly proud of.
If you've arrived in the community since 2009, you won't know what I'm
talking about. Go to:
http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/At%20Play%20With%20J
and follow links. You'll see the historical record of a polished,
substantial product (which is what a book is) -- produced entirely by
the J community, communicating via the forums.

Labs are probably the single biggest weapon the novice user has to
overcome the entry barrier to J expertise. I speak from recent
experience.
With just a ghost of the effort we all made back then, we could have a
working set of labs running under both JHS and JGTK in a month or so.

Please go to: http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/Addons/labs/labs/ControlLabs
--take a lab (on one or both of JHS or JGTK) by editing the page to
insert your name,
--test it, and record the result.

Ian Clark.
