| | 66 | * After review and some minor corrections made by Ludmil the following mail was sent to sophie2-devs maillist: |
| | 67 | {{{ With the conclusion of ITERATION_03 comes our usual summary as to what has been done. At a first glance, the results of our work might not appear as especially impressive. We managed to complete 40 out of 113 tasks, which means 34%. However, the number of successfully completed tasks is much higher than in the previous sprints. |
| | 68 | |
| | 69 | The server team managed to finish all of their coding tasks including one from the ITERATION_04. As a result we now have a functional Hudson build server (www.sophie2.org:8080) and operational Sophie2 testing server (www.sophie2.org/s2s). Our other Sophie project teams have also done a good job and we now have Sophie2 Author deployed via JWS. |

| | 71 | On 15 December we launched our first release, which is now available at http://sophie2.org/trac/wiki/Download. We are now looking forward to our second release, which is planned for 13 February. |
| | 72 | |
| | 73 | The list below summarizes ITERATION_03: |
| | 74 | What went well: |
| | 75 | * The arrival of additional hardware and software for the expanded team |
| | 76 | * The Server team completed all of its tasks |
| | 77 | * The overall team was successfully organized into separate groups with specific tasks |
| | 78 | * Progress checks proved useful |
| | 79 | * More discussions took place |
| | 80 | * The utilization of additional facilities for the team |
| | 81 | * The successful integration of new team members |
| | 82 | * The addition of some outstanding new members with a "global" vision of the product |
| | 83 | What could be better: |
| | 84 | * Discipline and respecting the process |
| | 85 | * Even better organization |
| | 86 | * A higher percentage of completed tasks |
| | 87 | * Even higher productivity |
| | 88 | After discussions in which all team members participated, we decided that we need to work in several directions in order to implement improvements: |
| | 89 | * Improve self discipline - we must respect the process and follow the established rules strictly (commit daily reports, use internal backlogs, etc.) |
| | 90 | * Better coordination between the teams - all team leaders need to improve their communication with their team members and other teams |
| | 91 | * Circulation of ideas concerning improvement - all team members have been encouraged to propose different ways for improving productivity (the proposals may concern all aspects of our work process) |
| | 92 | * Work towards the overall goal - we need to have an even better overall view of the project and its future |
| | 93 | * Team leaders to do daily reviews - this is one of the ways to improve the team communication and improve discipline |
| | 94 | |
| | 95 | Best regards from the Sophie team! |
