Conventions

• Each project has a User Manual.docx in the doc directory. Example: "Events User Manual.docx" The user manual should be ready for publishing at any time.
• Each project has a Development document in the doc directory. Example "Events Development.docx".
• The TODO list is maintained in the TODO section of the development manual.
