Progress Report 1

Here is the first Progress Report in PDF (or in high res, a much larger file).

Progress Report 2

Here is the second Progress Report in PDF.

Progress Report 3

Here is the third Progress Report in PDF. Note that this "progress report" was published after the convention.

Here's a scan of a different copy of the same in PDF (or in high res, a much larger file). This copy is stapled in a different order, with the photos page in the middle instead of in at the back in the above. (In the above, it looks clear that it was first stapled without the photos page, then the photo page was stapled on the back. Presumably it was supposed to go in the middle.)

Flyer

Here is a flyer advertising Minicon 2. And here is a text-only transcription of the same.
