Checked with Lauren this week - no updates yet but hoping we hear from DGS next week. Fingers crossed!

@machikoyasuda @angela-tran - Most recent ETA for approval from DGS is by end of this week.

@mrose914 We need to get the approval by Friday 12/22 in the early AM at the latest - and @angela-tran can get to it, or else, it will have to wait until 1/2/2024. (I don't work on Fridays, and Compiler has a week off after 12/22).

@mrose914 Started a draft of a PR here - #514 - so we're extra ready for the final text/link.
