ICE cycle 2008-05-08
Summary
The previous cycle mainly consisted of bugs fixes and minor improvements by Oliver and Linda, while Ron was also investigating problems relating to Subversion. Daniel demonstrated to a small group how GeoGebra content can be used within ICE and both Peter and Daniel presented to members of CRTP about using ICE for research. Another presentation for the wider USQ community is to follow in the coming weeks. This next cycle will also be much the same in relation to development with a very strong emphasis on resolving the Subversion problems. We have also started investigate the possibility of dropping SVN in favor of other versioning control systems.
Predicted work units: 70 (1 public holiday)
