:'''4 What is the timeline for development of your project? The Summer of Code work period is 7 weeks long, May 23 - August 10; tell us what you will be working on each week. (As the summer goes on, you and your mentor will adjust your schedule, but it's good to have a plan at the beginning so you have an idea of where you're headed.) Note that you should probably plan to have something "working and 90% done" by the midterm evaluation (July 6-13); the last steps always take longer than you think, and we will consider cancelling projects which are not mostly working by then.'''
:'''April 20th to May 26th:'''
* Research the sugar API extensively
* Write sample D-BUS communication programs
* Hack into moodle code, and create purposeful hacks (modifying the limits for plugin in consideration, and such)
* Talk with the design team and produce prototype interface designs
* Look into moodle APIs
* Focus on the bare essential dependencies required to get the job done
:'''Milestone 1'''
:'''Week 1 : '''
:Start writing code which actually configures the network printer server side, and on the clients side.
:'''week 2 : '''
:Write code which prints to local configured pdf clients side, and start working on UIs for this and integrating into sugar
''' week 3 '''
:Finish working on UIs, add buttons to each activity, and append a new printer module(api) to Sugar packages (api)
Mile stone 1 result:''See to it that the code can print to a local printer, a network printer and the pdf virtual printer. But ofcourse apart from pdf printing others will be disabled. Get mentor and community feedback.
'''Milestone 2'''
'''week 4 '''
:Start working on moodle, build a 'For printing' page plugin, see to it that it accepts files from client side, and stores them in moodle's webfolder (datastore)
'''week 5'''
:Add interfaces for teacher logins and student logins, and write code to perform operations depending on the users/teachers interactions.
: And start working on a php script for shell commands to directly print to the network printer.
'''week 6'''
:Finish working on the logical part and start working on creating a nice html layout for the page, get feedback and make corrections accordingly.
'''week 7'''
:Test code on a server with a printer, and test if everything works, get mentor and community feedback, and if any integration bugs remain, drill on them.
:Milestone 2:'' It would be to finish the moodle plugin, and see to it that printing can be done through it''
