History

Mid 2012

Started coding BOARD18 application, using as a basis a mock up I had previously created as a "proof of concept".
Started creating the design document in parallel with this coding effort.

May 5, 2013

  • Created the BOARD18 project on Gitorious.
  • Created a repository for board18 on Gitorious.
  • Created this WIKI to document and (eventually) publish BOARD18.
  • Shortly later, added To Do List to manage project tasks.

July 15, 2013

  • Published pre alpha release on Gitorious.
  • Created DEMO18 site to test it in the wild.
  • Created BOARD18 group on Yahoo for testers and other interested parties.

July 23, 2013

Ended pre alpha test.

Short Term

Late August, 2013

Will publish alpha 1 release [0.1.0] on Gitorious and load it to DEMO18.
This release may support some actual play testing. It will have:

  • All fixes for problems discovered in pre alpha test.
  • Added security features.

You can track progress on this work by looking at the Task List.
