Hi all,

My apologies for the later release than expected – there were some delays ensuring the project spec seemed clear and internally consistent – but the project spec is now available at

  https://cits5501.github.io/assessment/#project

I've made the due date in week 12. The project isn't very long, but nevertheless, there are 3 full weeks to do it in.

I do recommend reading through the spec as soon as you can, even if e.g. you are juggling other projects and plan to complete the CITS5501 project later. It's important to clarify any issues with the project spec early; if you only look at the project a few days before it's due and have questions then, I'll probably just refer you to this forum.

I'll have a Moodle project testing area available in the next few days. This will include some very basic tests of artifacts that can be automatically tested – e.g. code and grammars. But it won't include space for long-form English answers (e.g. questions 3 and 4 of the project).

At least a week before the project is due, I'll open up a final submission area on Moodle, and this will have space for your long-form English answers to questions.

If you've got queries about the project, feel free to post them here or ask them in labs. But do ensure you look through existing questions first. To keep the forum uncluttered, I will prune out questions which are just repetitions of a previous question, usually towards the end of the day.

Best of luck!

Cheers

Arran
