4/30/2012 - Weekly Update

PRE-UPDATE NEWS

First off before the update, a little news: A few days ago, Xavia, our lovely development director, was severely injured in a motor-vehicle accident. She was in critical condition following the accident as well as several days after it, and may still very well be in a similar condition. We would like to extend our prayers to her, her health and her family, and we hope she comes out of it the best she can.


Having said that..




There is a Crucible+FishEye view of the latest and upcoming revisions. It operates similarly to the Assembla Timeline but may provide a more fluid approach that many may find more useful for keeping up-to-date.
