    • tuning
    • bugs to fix
    • things to remove
    • things to disable
    • files to download
    • final delivery
  • documentation
    • download page
    • release documentation
    • user documentation
    • installation instructions

Documentation

Download Page

Release Document

  • Timelines
  • Printing
  • Page element grouping
  • PDF Export
  • Initial release of Sophie Reader and sample books.

User Documentation

  • This should be the documentation for all features available in the released downloadable. This includes new features, old features and updates done to them. This way we could iteratively form the final user docs.
  • Currently at ITERATION_08/Release/UserDocumentation

Installation Instructions

  • installation instructions (MAC/Windows/Linux). Mac java tweaking instructions.

Product

IMPORTANT

Always write where is the result of the task you completed. This would be the changeset with thorough commit comment for coding and a link to the wiki page for a document.

How to use the branch

This is not done yet
Update your working copy of the repository

  • If you have the trunk project imported in Eclipse, change your workspace to a new one (for example "Release")
  • Import as a "Maven project" from branches/release04-pre-alpha-5
  • All your changes from now on will affect only the release branch
  • We should prepare a good sample book.
