In an ideal world, we define some specifications of what we want from the product and when we match those, we deem it as ‘done’. But as a business sponsor, things are never really done. In order to progress or even to get the product to be used, we need to break it up into multiple releases – with the definition that each release is ‘usable’ in some sense.

For StudiDesk – we built the player, then we built the compiler, then we integrated the TTS technologies. So are we done – not by a long shot. In order to take it to market now I think I need a few more things :

1. An ‘admin’ website where we can manage the learning process (basically a lite LMS)
2. A reporting dashboard which lets us run reports.
3. A pricing and operational model – this must be simple and easy (and the admin site should reflect this)

The above with minor touch ups in StudiDesk itself is good enough to ‘go live’ with what I would think as the first major release of StudiDesk.
