(8 March, 2000)The Final will be given out on the last day of class (Friday, 3/10), and will be due on the scheduled final exam time. We will be meeting in Deschutes 100 for Demo Day on the final exam time.
(8 March, 2000)The notes from Glen's guest lectures are available.
(8 March, 2000)For the record, here's the Version 2.0 Concept Document
(2 March, 2000) Three new topics have been added.
(15 February, 2000) A description of the deliverables for the Architecture Design Description has been added to the standards page.
(15 February, 2000) User groups have been created for each team. As it turned out, we're not the first 422 class to have this idea: we just recycled the previous group names. The group name for each team is 422gn, where n is your team number (sorry folks -- boring names, after all). These will also work as mail aliases, and I have modifed the links on the Projects page accordingly.

As this is a course in software engineering, the team projects are the real meat-and-potatoes of this course. There is now a separate page for the Project teams, which will likely undergo constant revision throughout the term:
