February 2025 monthly summary for instructlab/sdg: Delivered a targeted bug fix to improve document chunking robustness when provenance data is missing. Updated code to check for the existence and truthiness of the 'prov' key in each book element before accessing page numbers, preventing list index out of range errors and stabilizing the processing pipeline for documents with incomplete provenance data.
