- Sophie2's development process will take about 1 year, starting from October 2008. This period is split into 12 shorter ones, called "iterations" (each iteration lasts about a month). During this time, more than 1500 tasks are going to be done. Every task has 3 major phases: analysis (defining what will be done), design (defining how to be done) and implementation (the actual work).

+ Sophie2's development process will take about 1 year, starting from October 2008. This period is split into 12 shorter ones, called "iterations" (similar to the terminology in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrum_(development) SCRUM]), each about 1 month long. During this time, more than 1500 tasks are going to be done. Every task has 3 major phases: analysis (defining what will be done), design (defining how to be done) and implementation (the actual work). The release schedule of the project is defined as follows: 
   * '''pre''' - iterations 1-5. At the end of this phase, the product must have stable internal architecture (this includes mainly the plugin decomposition).
   * '''alpha''' - iterations 6-8. Massive changes are expected here, but only external ones. After the end of the alphas, we will stop adding new features.
   * '''beta''' - iterations 9-11. All the features included until this period will be finished here. Most of the bugfixing will be done, too.
   * '''final''' - iteration 12. Final bugfixing. [[BR]]
- This methodology, as you see, is quite similar to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scrum_(development) SCRUM]. [[BR]]
