The history of my new year's reading:

First, I was going to reuse a two-year reading cycle of Vatican II documents last used 2014-2015. Then I found reading cycles no longer show on the home page although the Personal Book Builder supports them. BUG: No Reading Cycles on Home Page?

Second I thought, okay I'll use the Read the Fathers plan Read the Fathers - I'm only a little late starting. Oops, I forgot we never got this converted to a format that prioritized other editions over Schaff ... and by the time I get it converted  ...

But that reminds me that I've learned enough since I first tried Daf Yomi, that I should give that another shot beside readings of the Desert Fathers ... Ah, we run into two problems - Logos hasn't updated the resource to Cycle 14. (not to mention the reading cycles on home page problem) ... but this should be fairly easy to convert to a reading plan until I find I can't go beyond 2024 for a seven and a half year plan.

As for the Desert Fathers, the sayings are not tagged by the speaker of the sayings so I need to consider that a long term project to set up a reading plan.

The inability to a get simple repeat of readings I have previously done in Logos is frustrating for obvious reasons. So temporarily I HATE LOGOS.

    So I decide to start creating a proper reading plan for "Read the Fathers" working from Nete-Nicene Fathers as does the site ... only to discover after adding The Epistle of Ignatius to Polycarp there is no way to distinquish the Syriac version which is a separate reading but with an identical milestone ... How do I specify the second occurrence of a milestone? But, after all, the other two Syriac letters only have page numbers.
