Its been another busy week, lots of assignment work has been done, however there is still quite a bit to do. Have got quite a bit of project work to do but this may have to be placed on the back burner till later in the week as other deadlines are a bit sooner.
I'm currently writing a report for one of my other subjects (FIT2051), this may sound a bit weired but I'm actually enjoying writing it.
Testing has started and is being done by Jason, Paul and myself. I also have to do some user doc work which overlaps with some of the help stuff I did last week, so that should make it a bit easier. The test doc is massive, close to 150 pages, we divided it into between the 3 of us so that it's a bit easier and less mind numbing.
The project seems to be going really well, hopefully something that can continue till the end.
I have heard that the final interview is going to be a group interview, this should be very interesting as i think that there are some issues that will come out among the group, should be interesting.................
Till next time

Week 10
Well this week is really busy, I have done the help stuff that Dino has asked me to do and that's all that I had to do last week, that's all that Dino wanted me to do, which is fine with me as I have a lot of other things to do.
Annoyingly last weeks studio was not to be attended by our group, which is fine, it would have been nice for the our "Project Manager" Dino to let us know. I ended up calling him and he managed to let me know this about 15 minutes before the studio, thanks anyway..........
Steve and Dino were doing the uploading of the site in H building, when I offered to come and help I was met with a "nah don't worry about it, just add to the help section stuff you've already done". I found this weired as we have had issues in the past regarding to participation in the project, bit weired but anyway.
I notice a growing tension in the group between the programmers and the documentors, I think that they feel that they are doing all the work and we are doing nothing.
The fact is that, as Dave told me, programmers are probably going to have to do a lot of work as it is up to them to build and implement the new solution. That's just the nature of the project. At the same time they have not lifted a hand to do any of the documentation in this semester, the bulk of it has been done by Paul and Myself. You don't see me carrying on about it though.
My stance since day one is that I do what I am asked to do by my project manager, if he wants me to do this or that, that's what I'll do.
The project testing is going to start shortly and I hop it all goes well.
Till next week

Week 8 Is Over
Well we are nearly there, implementation is nearly upon us.
Sorry Dave for not Blogging last week I know you must have been agonisingly bored without reading about he inner workings of my mind. Nothing really too interesting to report this week
Unfortunately I could not make this weeks studio due to some major car problems which has seen my bank account take a bit of a dive.
All my other subjects are going well but as we all know now is the time if the semester where a lot of time is going to be demanded of me. All in all things are going well.
That's all for now
