SCG Court will continue to live after the course is over. But we must
prepare for this now.

It is important to prepare a design document for SCG Court that can be
given to future developers of SCG Court to prepare them for SCG Court
maintenance and evolution tasks.
This document should outline the architecture of the system, using
pictures. It should outline the “philosophy” used by the
implementation teams so that this philosophy can also be followed
during system maintenance.
For example, the contract that the admin must check all incoming
claim, instance and solution objects for validity (using valid(…) and
belongsTo(…) must be mentioned.
Please can the implementation teams write this document and present it
at the last class.

Please can Sapna take the lead on this and organize that the Greek
Gods, Boston Chargers, Astro and Terminator describe the
relevant parts they developed.

I would like to ask PRX to write a Test Design Document describing
their continuous testing approach, how it should be used and evolved.
Also to be presented at the last class meeting. Please can Reto
oversee the development of this document.

Note that this is not just software documentation but these documents
describe the higher-level issues
that are crucial for understanding and evolving the system.
