16 During the "project week" coding has got well underway,
17 although mostly in the experimental stage. Planning and
18 design decisions are still being made, along with various
19 specification documents. Detailed information can usually
20 be found in the meeting minutes. Code is viewable via CVS
21 to UKC users only.

28 On Monday 16th and Tuesday 17th October all members of the group made presentations to various groups of peers.

41 <p align="justify">
42 The name <b>i-scream</b> arose from a meeting whereupon one member
43 of our group randomly chose to draw an ice cream on the white board.
44 It later became apparent that we had no name for our project (other
45 than 'The Project'). It seemed only natural to name our project after
46 the ice cream that had been oh-so-randomly drawn on the white board.
47 Copyright issues immediately ruled out anything involving Mr Whippy,
48 so we had to settle for <b>i-scream</b>. And thus, we were left with a cunning
49 play on words - it still sounded like <i>ice cream</i>, yet also
50 served as a functional decription of our system - namely, one which
51 screams at somebody if something has gone wrong...
