Jacob Austin shared in a reply that he has been hanging out in the Lean Zulip chat with Kevin Buzzard this week. Buzzard's main request so far is to compile a list of errata so the community learns something from this proof effort, which has now been partly done. Austin described Buzzard as very kind, perhaps more than they deserve, and said he genuinely cares about the result — wanting Lean to thrive.
