# Website Project Stalled — Copy Approval Pending

## Overview

The JBF website project is stalled, blocked on client-side copy approval from Lisa. The project was paid for in January 2025, making this a long-running open deliverable. As of the Feb 20 2026 weekly call, a meeting with Lisa was scheduled for Monday to unblock the project and move into the build phase.

## Status

**Blocked** — awaiting client approval on copy.

## Background

- Client paid for the website build in **January 2025**
- Delay is not attributed to the Asymmetric team — Melissa noted she had done everything possible to advance the project on her end
- Progress requires Lisa's sign-off on copy before the site can be built out
- The project has been stalled for over a year at the time of this meeting

## Notes from Meeting
