Dear SEMAINE developers,
the time is approaching when we must publish SEMAINE Release 2.0. I am
now starting to plan how best to release and distribute the full system,
and how to document the use of it.
Can we have a feature-complete version of the system by Monday 7
December? That leaves us one week to make sure everything integrates
well and runs smoothly.
Can I please have individual feedback on each of the points we agreed in
Belfast (see below), to help my planning?
Thanks a lot, best of success in completing these things.
I'll be in touch with some of you individually to think through the best
way of shipping your components.
Best,
Marc
