Liz,

In the edit below you state that 2.4 and 2.5 did not happen. This is
not entirely true.

There was continual evaluation against the materials within the
development activity. The issues we discovered were either fixed
during the development process or recorded within the issue tracker.

It is true that there was less opportunity than hoped for feedback
from yourself.

Ross,
It is true that there was less opportunity than hoped for feedback
from yourself.
Indeed: hence the statement. 'Continual evaluation against the materials within the development activity' is only what should have happened anyway. The intention was for me to review the emergent widgets during the development process on a reasonably regular basis, and I allowed for the equivalent of 2 days (spread over the devt phase) for this activity in my schedule. However, the software was made available to me on only one occasion. Therefore, I cannot in all honesty state that this aspect of WP 2 was fully accomplished; however, I have modified the note re WP2.4/5 to indicate that one review did take place.
