Milestone 2 - Release Candidate

For the second milestone (Monday, 12/05/2014) you are required to show progress based on the feedback you've received from the workshop staff at Milestone 1.

Please provide a full demonstration (6 minutes) of using your product in various scenarios. The demonstration should encompass your top features, and highlight new features or changes made since Milestone 1. We recommend that you create a video of your demo to prevent any technical issues.

You should also be prepared to talk about your development process, in case you would be asked to (what is your plan for the next Milestone ? how long do you expect the work would take? how did you split the work? what was easy? what was difficult? why?).

Some general advice:

- Prepare an appealing demo!

- You have only a short time for the demonstration so start with your new features or changes you've made since Milestone 1.

- If you are demonstrating social features of your application, or any other features that require prior preparations - please prepare them in advance! (e.g. creating social networks of several users).

- It is also advised to rehearse your presentation so it will flow nicely (For example: make sure you could demonstrate different users simultaneously - using different browsers for example)

You are required to provide in your Google code website a link to your running application (App-Engine website or a download link to an Android apk file). In addition provide instructions on how to use your application and how to install it (if installation is needed).

Important note: Full grading for Milestone 2 (25 points) will be given for teams that would successfully show:

  1. Focusing on primary use case and taking into account our feedback (sent by email for every team).

  2. Following the project plan while adapting dynamically.

  3. Continuously working along the semester (tip: put on the project site a report with all the time spent on the project by each of the team members. You are advised to update this report after every programming session).

  4. Demonstrating an interesting, self contained, useful and live application.

  5. Providing a link to a live application

  6. Good presentation (simple, clear, focused, time-framed, sincere)
