The following is a modification made by my mentors to the original
schedule found in [[http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/proposal/review/google/gsoc2011/gnusosa/1][here]]

**** Week #1:April 25 - 23 May
Gather current Dancer's core, plugin and packaging documentation, and
study this as an introduction. Arrange the working schedule with the
mentors based on the observed goals, and schedule a better working
process based on the timeline.

**** Week #1: 24 - 28 May
Review and select suggestions from users, developers, and mentors on
the module. Study the possibilities of the upgrade module, and code a
rough draft to be worked on.

**** Week #2: 29 May - 4 June
Finish successfully moving the old script intact to an object oriented
module. Write tests for the current object oriented module.

**** Week #3: 5 - 11 June
Study =Catalyst= scripts and =Catalyst::ScriptRunner=, derive a code from
both to merge to the project.

**** Week #4: 12 - 18 June
Write the upgrade methods and add tests for those.

**** Week #5: 19 - 25 June
Add the module to Dancer's core and run it against several outdated
setups. Review the results and calibrate the tests to the resulting
patterns.

**** Week #6: 26 June - 2 July
Add an upgrade log file
for the upgrade process for outdated Dancer setups.

**** Week #7: 3 - 8 July
Go over the tests and add any
missing test to allow extensive coverage.

**** Week #8: 10 - 16 July
Prepare the Midterm report, describe the status of the project and
further plans.

**** Week #9: 17 - 23 July
Document the module, and the config.yml

**** Week #10: 24 - 30 July
Write a code hand-out of the plugins implementation: How it must work,
how will it work and for what functions. Add detailed tests to each
plugin function.

**** Week #11: 31 July - 6 August
Calibrate and polish the plugin implementations, while tracing each
test successful output to see what can be added. Write a rough draft
of the documentation relating the plugin feature.

**** Week #12: 7 - 13 August
Review the documentation and make it more user-friendly.

**** Week #13: 14 - 22 August
Finish what was left undone, make sure the tests are well-written, the
coverage is high and the documentation covers every aspect of the
project.
