ICE cycle 2008-06-05
Summary
We were short staffed in the previous cycle with Ron on leave for 1 week and Linda not available therefore, less development occurred. However thanks to Oliver amongst other things we managed to improve the publishing options for pilot users, they can now email, and download single documents using specific skins. We also finally have the new SVN repositories setup for use within USQ, this has been a long 6 month wait.
As I (Daniel) aka DdB and debyld, will be leaving the team on the 13th of June and heading overseas, we'll be aiming to get another release of 2.0 out and start piloting within USQ. I'll also be working on handing over responsibilities to someone yet to be hired, and will be madly writing up all the processes used as well as how to guides... well here's hoping.
Predicted work units: 70
