brickOS Release Effort - Implementation Plan

Last update: 13 May 2002 23:26 MST

We have quite a bit to do to bring this release together. We have a number of independent tasks which can be started now and we have other tasks which must wait before we can begin on them. This page is intended to be an itemization of the tasks we see and who has volunteered to work on them.  We keep these tasks and the actual progress at the SourceForge project task page (I'd put the link here, but you need to be logged in to SourceForge to get there.)

There is no other intent to all of this other than to be a place the project members can refer to from time to time to see who's working on what for this release. In its essence this page reflects information passed between release coordinator and the developers working on elements of the release.

All of the following tasks have been entered into our SourceForge project tracker.
