Week of September 21st, 2007:
Overview:
This week, deadlines were looming. CDLG and SSG must be launched, October 1st in proper condition. Because of this, I had to work a lot of overtime, and additionally, come in and work on a Sunday. There was an initial shock, realizing the amount of work that to be done. It has been averted now, however.
Events:
- worked with Kathy, Jason Silzer to produce splash screens. Fixed a character formatting problem: save all files in DOS ASCII mode, to avoid problems.
- Had many meetings on Tuesday; realized the amount of work that needed to be done; learned that CDLG tasks needed to be done also.
-Started Testing SSG, wednesday -> friday
Project Notes:
- SSG:
- corrected character formatting with DOS ASCII saves.
- implented front end text; Julie and Leslie wrote it; i posted it.
- wrote the shortName() function: this names the splash screens (all splash screens used to be named “testtemplate.xxx”).
- solved the session problem (the splash screens from previous inputs were saved in the zip files of new inputs). However, now sessions are shared amonst users; a security problem has occured.
- edited the .xml file; for greater usability
- CDLG:
- planned with Steve Murphy, produced a task list with Julie.
- Steve finished the templates needed
Mistakes:
- did not get over shock quickly enough
- some procrastination noted.
- should think ahead more.
