• Main developers: sit dow and make a list of tutorials necessary; link to youtube videos

Release: needs careful notes, so users know what they have to change to move to the new version.

Problem: Servers: Document of Wouter is not good enough for Ant to take over server handling.

There are two servers, each has different things on.

Servers handle: svn, documentation, confluence, DEM8, lots of things

• We keep website MercuryDPM.org; thus,
• we keep Chris' server.

• All should have knowledge of server

• Anthony Thornton Create Backup script to have the server data secured onto Google Drive
• Thomas Weinhart Give anthony access to his computer

• Juan Esteban Alvarez Set up http://confluence.mercurydpm.org/questions such that it is available publicly and can be used to answer MercuryDPM user questions.

• Juan Esteban Alvarez Mitchel Post work on howto book of MercuryDPM
