Planing for APS Launcher

Every project must have a plan, especially when its' Open Source and more than one developer are coding on that project.

So there is a 'APS Launcher' Open Source Project, there's also a plan. I divided the project into 3 big parts:
  1. Design and interface
    The interface and the design of the project that will interact with the project classes. I decided to take care of this part myself.
  2. Running command line instance
    Running the command line and capturing the output is the biggest and hardest part ever, I will just control the work in this part, especially about the threading. I prefer that this part is done by 2 programmers.
  3. XML Data base
    For storing the data, we'll use an XML File. A class will take care of the different command to add and remove elements from the file. This will be coded by only one developer.
  4. Publishing and advertising
    I'm going to publish it into a website and host it on my server, as I have enough space and bandwidth (I think so, unless App Engine Windows users are a few millions). For advertising we'll use services like Google Code.
Time to see the project live:
I bet we can complete the project before august, so it'll be ready by 1 September.
