== Project Review ==
The starting-point is selecting a project from the [[Potential Projects]] list. Most of the descriptions on that list are very short, and it may take some investigation and discussion to really understand the scope of each proposal. Use the contact information and resources listed for each project to narrow down your search to 2-4 projects by '''Week 2'''.
== Project Selection ==
Once you have decided on a project, remove the project description from the [[Potential Projects]] list and place it on the [[Project List]]. Create a link from the project description to a project page (use the [[Sample Project]] page as a template). Select your project by the end of '''Week 3'''.
== 0.1 Release (Proof of Concept) ==
One of the Open Source principles is "Release Early, Release Often". Your first "0.1" release is due '''October 17 ''' and will serve as an initial proof-of-concept. This release must include "code", but the definition of "code" will vary considerably depending on the project (the "code" may be test cases, for example, if that's the focus of the project).
Release your code via the project page on the Wiki, and make an announcement of the release on the planet.
== 0.2 Release (Basic Functionality) ==
By '''November 14''', your project should have basic functionality, and be released as version "0.2".
== Project Presentations ==
Project presentations will take place '''November 25'''. This will be an opportunity to show off the work that you've done and to have a Q&A session.
== 0.3 Release (Stable, Usable) ==
The 0.3 Release must take place by '''December 5'''. This release does not need to be fully polished or feature-complete, but it should have enough functionality to be useful for real work.
= Contributions to Other Projects =
As part of your LUX project, you are expected to contribute to other Open Source projects and to create opportunities for others to contribute to your project; this includes both other Seneca students and other members of the Fedora community. You should tell other people about contribution opportunites through your blog on the planet, and you can also put them on the [[Contrib Opportunites]] page.
