Book versions
Our priority remains finalising the book versions proposal. We have received NCBI comments and are busy responding to them. We are also busy updating the designs for book versioning, and will next work on development time estimates, once we have finalised the proposal. We will let the NCBI know when the proposal is ready for another review.
Progress on the Apr-A milestone
We are working on two features alongside a number of bugs. The main features this cycle are related to Repeat TOC entries, and Vendor queries. Those are in the final stages of development and QA and the milestone is generally on track to be completed this week.
No release this week
Since the majority of Giannis's time last week was spent analysing the impact and requirements of book versioning, we have a backlog of MRs requiring review. We also need Giannis's time to continue to be focussed on book versions while the proposal is still being finalised and the development impact analysed. Therefore we don't want to do a release this week, although we have many issues passed development and QA, the MRs need to be reviewed by Giannis and book versioning needs to remain the priority.
May-A milestone
This week we will start preparing issues for the May-A milestone and will confirm the contents of May-A next week.
