Hi Kate, I've been busy for the last 3 weeks, but I'm still working on the tasking manager even if it's a bit hidden (code cleanup, authentication fixes, etc...). Nicolas asked me for some thoughts and quotes on an dashboard application. I'm still thinking about it and I will probably call Nicolas to get more information because I'm not sure I have a clear view.
I also tried to follow the several discussions on the hot mailing list, and I must admit that I'm a bit lost. For example, I didn't really understand what this "simulation" is about. I'm still super motivated to contribute in a way (software dev) or another. What does working with GISCorps mean exactly? Who is Randy Hale? Even though, I would be happy to help GISCorps as a software developer volunteer too. About the tasking server, there were a lot of interesting user feedbacks (in the google document, or recently on the mailing list). Some of them are worth being taken into account, in my opinion.
