next steps for The Cannon

It was a low research day! The only substantial research value came in a call with Andy Casey about the next steps with his regularized version of The Cannon. We have to track down issues for cool stars (which are hard for the models and underpopulated in our training set. We have to look at whether we can make use of stars with different effective line-spread functions. We have to get some non-trivial continuum ideas working. We have to get ready to help APOGEE with DR14. I suggested that we prioritize things that will help GALAH in the short run: This would be high impact, and anything we do for GALAH is good for all the other customers.
