Final

A number of you requested that the final be "Squash bugs". But I need to know how many bugs there are and what kinds of bugs they are. We also need a way to distribute them among the students.

My inclination is:

• Squash five bugs and write a short description (with code) of what you did to squash the bug.
• Implement one major or two moderate features and write a short description (with code) of how you implemented it.

How will we distribute them? I had thought we would use class time, but I don't think we'll have a bug list by then.

So ...

• Friday, 8 p.m.: Bug list and feature list. If there aren't at least fifty bugs on the bug list, and five major and ten minor priority features on the feature list, there will be an in-class final.
• Saturday, 8 p.m.: Each student submits a priority list of ten bugs you want to work on and three potential features or feature sets
• Saturday, Midnight: Sam distributes assignments
• Next Friday, 9 a.m.: Finals due.

Presentation

• Needed more lessons for the crowd.
• I heard good things.

Evaluation

• Fill out EOCEs.
