It was also decided that the first major task for the group was to create a specification, followed by a detailed design document, to be completed by 29/1/99. An informal agreement to "do everything like the EDSAC did it" was agreed. To achieve this, fairly extensive research needs to be conducted into the EDSAC machine, so that an overall design that mirrors the machine can be chosen, if that turns out to be appropriate. It was also agreed that some initial code prototyping, especially for the GUI, in order to determine possible GUI and data structures would be useful.
There was some discussion about what development tools to use, with a consensus reached to use RCS for version control, and to investigate Sun's "Java Workshop" as a development environment.
A second meeting was scheduled for the end of the week (22/1/99), after more research was done, in order to draw up an overall program design for the project.
