The Coding to Learn and Create project is worked on by a distributed team. We have several methods of doing our work collaboratively and openly. Please join us!
Talk to Each Other
Weekly Team Meeting
The project team meets on Wednesdays at 10 am Eastern using Goto Meeting. We update each other on what has been done in the past week and talk through any work road blocks.
Daily Check-in Meeting
The design and development team meets for quick check-ins on Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays and alternate Tuesdays at 11:45 am Eastern using Vidyo in the fluid_standup room.
Casual Chats
The design and development team uses the Fluid Project IRC rooms for casual conversations about the project work. In particular, we can be found in the #fluid-work and #fluid-design rooms that are logged by the Fluid Project: #fluid-work logs and #fluid-design logs.
Share Documents, Links, Ideas and Prototypes
Working Documents
The project team uses Google drive to share working documents.
Sharing Links and Ideas
The project team uses a mailing list for asynchronous conversations about the project. You can join the mailing list or view the archives.

Prototypes
The design and development team sometimes makes prototypes of various technologies being created. Currently there is a prototype of a simple web based programming environment that can draw shapes with straight lines.
Plan Our Work
The project team uses this wiki to document tasks and features that have been completed, are being worked on and are planned for the future.
Bi-weekly Iteration Planning Meeting
The design and development team meets on alternate Tuesdays at 10 am Eastern for an Iteration Planning Meeting. During this meeting, work that has been completed in the last iteration is shared and reviewed, and work is planned and assigned for the iteration that is starting. Tasks for each iteration are organized in this spreadsheet.
Develop Software
The development team uses JIRA to track issues and features being built into the development environment and Github to manage our source code.
