Planning

Our group uses an Agile methodology that we have adapted for a distributed, Open Source environment. Our process is described in our Practices section under Planning Process. Our team plans at a high level based upon a Roadmap for the project. This is used to coordinate direction with the community and other development groups. Planned development iterationsare planned based upon specific pieces of functionality we propose to accomplish during a fixed period of three weeks. These functional pieces are specified using Story Cards contributed by work group members.
