Weekly Update 12/16/09: Developer Alpha 4

[David Nolen]

Turns out a lot can happen in a week. While we didn’t close many
tickets (they’ve been moved over to Developer Alpha 5), a great of
progress has been made in making the user interface functional. In
fact there are really too many changes to list.

Here’s a couple screenshots to get a feel for how far along the user
interface has come.

Since the holidays are coming up we can’t make too many promises about
Developer Alpha 5. We’ll be focusing on making the user interface as
functional as possible over closing tickets for this next milestone-
it’s more fun, and it means that there’s a more parallel work load
(HTML/CSS/JS).

But fear not, Developer Alpha 6 & 7 will be focused on closing tickets
and fixing bugs.

The end is in sight early 2010 ;)
