Web Dev Plan

nirvan

Hey everyone, I just got off the phone with Ilya and our web team at Ciplex, and there has been a lot of progress to report. Lauren has been knocking off bugs, they have been fixing IE browser issues all last week, and we are getting ready for a final big push to compile and deal with the remaining fixes.

Over the next 48 hours, Ciplex will be doing internal quality testing and bug fixing. Tonight, I'm putting together an itemized list of things I've noticed that still need fixing. After they take a crack at fixing bugs internally, there will be one more round of quality checking on my part, 3 developers will fix what is reasonable, and then we will open the new site up for beta testing.

Some of you have already offered to help with beta testing, and I'll be contacting you all about that. If you haven't contacted me, and would like to help with beta testing, please let me know.

The time it will take to fix the remaining issues is still up in the air- we may end up putting off some fixes until another round of development if they are not priorities. Our main goal is to get the core functionality of the new site working and stable so we can get things moving. 

So, I'm still in Houston as I mentioned in the last vlog. Looks like I'll be back in LA next week- and am looking forward to getting back into video editing. Until then, just wanted to share the web news. It's been a rough process lately, but I'm encouraged by this latest spark of progress, as well as the latest bunch of producers to sign up, helping us pass 11,300 Producers.

Yeehaw, from Texas.

Nirvan! What's up?
I've been browsing the internets and swung by and wanted to let you know that, shit, I've very proud to have helped you with this when I could have.
To see how things are going is really cool. I hope it's moving faster.
I'm sorry to hear about the family problems in Houston, but I hope it all went well.
I'd love to stop by someday soon and see what's happening... but I kind of don't have a license anymore... so... yeah, I'll tell you more later.
Anyway, I wanted to say "hi!" give you a big ol' friendly hung and I hope things are poppin' in the most awesome way.
Give my friendly love hugs to Levi and Mike too.
Oh, and I hope you checked out my flu short, I'm pretty proud because it seems like a real commercial.
Alright man, I'll talk to you later.

Hey Sean! awesome to hear from you. Glad to see you are still making videos; I voted for your stuff. And Levi said, is that Sean?? You have to come by the office some time and I'll show you some of the stuff we've been working on.

best,
