so we're getting close to the implementation dead line here and I think now is a good time for a blog post.  Everything, while not complete, is looking pretty good.  I don't feel as though we're really in crunch time here. There isn't an insurmountable amount of work left to be done.

As far as our work for team A, they seem pretty satisfied. We're doing some final testing and have found a bug or two, but they look like they should be easy to iron out. The design is somewhat confusing in terms of the Alpha list on top of a numeric list, but this seems mostly to be a product of the requirements listed in the homework.


I've taken some good looks at team C's implementation of our design and we've had to make some changes along the way.  most of the changes have been handled by email and skype meetings and the group has been nothing but awesome in terms of complying with requests. I realize how hard it is to design something without being able to iterate through the project. I'm glad we were able to communicate with the implementing team and work out the kinks.
