 \item Preliminary analysis and quality assurance of the assembled data set (e.g., 
           coordinates vs. time plots for stars with large SDSS proper motions); 
           decision whether astrometric recalibration is required (perhaps using galaxies). 
-\item Fit proper motions (see eqs.3-6 in Bramich et al.)  using the Bramich et al. SDSS values as priors.

 \item Analyze updated proper motions (e.g., Fig. 2 in Vidrih et al. 2007, MNRAS 382, 515;
    Figs. 22 and 23 from Sesar et al. 2010, AJ 708, 717, color-coded with the mean proper 
    motions), including using quasars for the assessment of systematic errors.
