Excellent news! Last time I looked I couldn't even see who the Angus co-ordinator is, and I wondered if the project had stalled.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.
