Review status of the project:

• Dave - Developed menu engine on the functional simulator, sketched out some functionality for the API
• Rob - Got Cosmic emulation environment installed, awaiting license so we can compile files bigger than 2Kb.
• Ben - Developed menu system, which has been converted to the functional sim
• Makia - Largely completed and tested message decoding tables/algorithm and the basic code for message lookup
• Derek - Undertaking in-depth PCMCIA research for implementation in the hardware design

New tasks to be assigned:

• Dave - Update functional sim engine for heirarchical menus, implement automotive network data injection so we can test operation
• Rob - unit test individual modules, work with whoever is writing code to generate abbreviated files for <2Kb testing (proof of concept, proper compilation, etc.)
• Ben - Revise the menu to minimize menu depth, revise presentation for next Wednesday
• Makia - Update website with new documents, try to figure out some bogus data file to use when we have the capability
• Derek - Gather PCMCIA research documents (specs, protocol, hardware, suppliers, etc) in a 3-ring binder for reference in the lab

All these things should be done by Spring break AT THE LATEST. Everyone, RESPOND to me with verification or updates to these statuses (statii?) and assignments by Thursday. If I've forgotten anything, please let me know and we'll put it in the official minutes we present to Wecker and put on the web page. The information in this status report was written down while eating pie, so don't mind the chocolate stains.
