Project Sharing Engine January update
By Ed Mitchell 18th January 2012
Work on the Project Sharing Engine project has been progressing well since we got it moving last autumn.
We had a good early project launch meeting with the ‘alpha’ testing webmaster group, and have since been in the first design phase. We will build the ‘alpha’ product in February and March, for release to the webmasters taking part in the early trials in April for two months testing.
We like to do our tech building in the winter for release in the spring – there is a sense of seasonality about it that we like.
You can see the basic project timeline and roles in this blog post
Here is a list of the various blog posts and wiki pages of the ongoing activity:
