ICE cycle 2008-07-03
Summary
In the previous cycle we had some staffing changes, Daniel has handed over some tasks to myself (Bron Chandler) and Oliver has been involved with other projects within LFII. Correcting subversion errors has taken Ron longer than he expected, and he has branched the code to correct the problem. Linda has been fixing a variety of bugs, helping EPS as required and updating the toolbar.
Tasks for the cycle included hand over of admin tasks, with the key focuses in the software development area on stabilizing version 2.0 and working on roll out tasks for use at USQ.
This cycle, Ron is working on the branched code to correct the subversion problems we are experiencing. Internal testing will then be completed, followed by a release for external testing, before merging back with the main code. Linda will continue to bug-fix and mid-cycle Sam joins us again to assist with outstanding issues.
