Development Methodology

Jump to navigationJump to search
The project will be managed as a series of 6-week milestones. The milestones will be broken out as follows:
- 1 week – planning for this milestone
- 4 weeks – development
- 1 week – stabilization
- 1 week – release
(The above adds up to more than 6 weeks, because in general, the planning week overlaps the release week).
The final project milestone is: 4 weeks of stabilization and release.
Milestones are divided up into week-long "Sprints" to prevent all of a milestone's functionality from hitting at the end of the milestone and causing a collision. Project developers must respect this, to give a break to the maintainers.
