Workflow

  • In the beginning we try to implement as much as possible in the "generic" frontend OpenAtlas-Discovery with which can start immediately.
  • Around autumn we will employ an additional frontend developer and begin with the "heavy lifting"
  • Define a rough roadmap with milestones and dates. Useful to check progress and react in a timely manner in case of changes.
  • Planned target dates for "almost" finished sites: MAMEMS end of 2024, Approaching Byzantium April 2023
  • Meet again in a bigger round in autumn 2023 where we also will discuss a more fine grained feature roadmap
