After all, many journals require revisions to be done in 60 days, or the papers are treated as new submissions. This seems all the more justified that most contributions have been in the author’s hands for some time now. The only exceptions I would make are the contributions that are still in the editor’s hands, and the Companion Editors should strive to send these back to the authors very soon.

The other document, which I don't plan to send to the authors, summarizes the progress made since 2012.  The most dramatic changes over this four-year period are the percentage of submissions accepted (87% now versus 32% in Feb. 2012) and the number of not-yet-accepted contributions that are "in the editors' court" (6 now versus 83 in Feb. 2012).  There are also 31 unfinished contributions that are in the hands of authors.  In some cases, those authors have been sitting on their contributions for many months or even years without revising them, perhaps because they believed that the book was never going to be finished.  In other cases, the authors received their contributions back from the editors only recently.  At some point (fairly soon), I think we need to set a hard deadline for authors, but the deadline needs to be fair to those authors who were not at fault for the delay in their contributions.
