Plan for MercuryMay (draft)
- Plan is to spend a month and implement/improve/document features we deem important.
- This can be topics particular to your research, but more improtantly general improvements.
- We make a list of topics, everyone picks what he will work on (in groups, possibly).
- We have daily meetings to discuss progress.
- At the end of the month we release a new version of MercuryDPM.
@all: please add topics to this list; ideally before next weeks meeting; who works on what can be decided later
