== 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'''(note: 2-4 projects, not 1, not 6!). {| class="wikimedia sortable" border="1" width="80%" align="center" |-!Student name!Projects under consideration!Notes |-|Mohak Vyas|[http://zenit.senecac.on.ca/wiki/index.php/Creating_an_MDRK_spin Create an MDRK spin]|NM Web Authentication has been claimed by an OSD/DPS student --[[User:Chris Tyler|Chris Tyler]] 02:45, 17 September 2008 (UTC) |-|Milton Paiva|Func modules: user, group, cron setup, httpd, and sendmail and Free-open font packaging | |-|Paul DiRezze|Condor/Nightlife imake->GNU make transition||-|Varinder Singh|Fedora Network Unified Controller(Func), Network Automation, Create a MDRK Spin| |-|Katherine Masseau|Jack Driver for Audacity, Write Func Modules, Extend Try Servers to test Thunderbird patches.| |-|Stephen Carter|Port apport from Ubuntu to Fedora| |-|Patricia Constantino|Corresponding Source Web App | |-|Nestor Chan|Windows Data Migration|https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Windows_data_migration_Toolhttp://zenit.senecac.on.ca/wiki/index.php/Windows_Data_Migration_Tool |-|Kezhong Liang|Add IPv6 Support to Condor and ....|! |} <span style="background: yellow">This table is for preliminary selection only. Please put your final project selection on the [[Project List]] -- see instructions below.</span>
== 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'''- <span style="color: red">September 19</span>.
== 0.1 Release (Proof of Concept) ==
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.
= Blogging =
Please blog frequently about your project progress. In addition to general progress reports, please blog on these specific topics:

= 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 OpportunitesOpportunities]] page. [[Category:LUX]]
