Yes. Having something deployed by the end of the first month of coding proved to give everyone a much greater satisfaction, and sufficient time for testing, providing feedback and fixing / improving the solution. Of course you would still plan to keep improving the project for the remaining two months, it's just important to plan everything in a way that gets you some deliverable early in the process (as opposed to trying to include all the tricky, corner cases and less important features from the start, not having anything substantial to show for months, then loose motivation and never get the project finished).
