Condor: Near-Term Planning

So here is a preliminary game plan looking forward a couple of months. There will be many more things to investigate, but here is a quick list:

This week
- setup two sites for testing out a proof of concept

1 Month
- complete a proof of concept; the team members have agreed to help at various levels.
- begin looking at which retailers would be most willing to work with us
- discuss with advisers about how we can get retailers to cooperate; I already scheduled an appointment with SCORE for Sept 12th.

2 Month
- apply to YC with demo sites
- attend Launch Prep course at ASU Technopolis; I already signed up for it, starts mid-September
- see if thru ASU Technopolis, we can get an introduction to demo our idea for an angel; I'd like to get enough money to be able to work on the project full-time

I'll work on the two sites this weekend and hopefully beginning of next week we can start to do some mods and tests.

Okay, here is the setup:
- mandrake linux
- apache
- mysql
- php

Then I installed two open-source scripts that we will be using for our prototyping. more to come later.
