Pierre Deligne Papers and Letters: Working Translation Drafts and Source/QA Packets

This record contains Pierre Deligne paper and letter working drafts, organized as a reader-first public surface. The latest cleanup fronts the sequential cumulative English and French readers for Papers 001-016p080, groups individual paper and letter PDFs by language, and groups TeX/source-check/QA/update material into a separate artifact ZIP.

Status caveat. These are useful working drafts and source/QA packets, not a critical edition and not a blanket source-faithfulness claim. Deligne material is uneven: some papers and letters are strong working drafts, while diagram-heavy and equation-dense pieces still require source comparison.

Use rule. Open the cumulative readers first. Use the English/French grouped PDF ZIPs for individual papers and letters. Use the TeX/source/QA ZIP for checking and repair. Check commutative diagrams, dense formulas, references, and theorem statements against source witnesses before relying on them.

D001 source-aligned checkpoint: direct bilingual, English, and corrected-French readers are accompanied by one compact editable-source and decisive-source-evidence ZIP. The ZIP contains 14 tightly bounded 2400-9600 dpi crops used to adjudicate four disclosed source repairs; it excludes redundant output-reader renders. This is a complete working edition of D001 only, not a whole-corpus completion, critical edition, peer review, certification, or new license grant.

D002 source-aligned checkpoint: direct bilingual, English, and corrected-French readers are accompanied by one compact editable-source and decisive-source-evidence ZIP. The ZIP contains four tightly bounded source crops used for the page-411, page-413, and page-415 diagram/formula decisions; its ledger distinguishes the 1200-dpi source render from enlarged inspection presentation. Full scans, output screenshots, and raw logs are excluded. This is a complete working edition of D002 only, not a whole-corpus completion, critical edition, peer review, certification, or new license grant.

Adds the complete Deligne D001-D007 provenance ZIP and manifest plus every current loose project logbook, including the D006 recovered history and NUL corruption/recovery record.

Archive scope: This is a bounded preservation snapshot. It does not certify production completion, mathematical or editorial correctness, publication readiness, or rights beyond the rights and caveats already recorded.
