ICE-RS cycle 2007-05-03
Summary
As expected the previous cycle was not tracked as well as normal, the main reasons for this was we had two new staff members starting (Linda and Sam), and we also had a consultant visit 3 days (Ian). During Ian's time here work proceeded on the OpenOffice.org template for Zotero, and we also started work on the improvements to the ICE word processor toolbars.
This cycle will be focused on finishing off the changes for the Books to use the file import method and start work on making improvements for images. We will then continue the work started on the ICE Word and OOo toolbars.
Predicted work units: 42 (7 day cycle)
