VQR Submission System v1.0.

On 5 September 2007 with 2 comments

After hundreds of hours of work, 249 issues in FogBugz, and thousands of lines of code, the VQR electronic submission system is done. It won’t look real exciting to 99% of y’all, but believe me, this system represents the absolute technological pinnacle in the delivery and management of electronic submissions to publications. The last couple of weeks have been particularly exhausting (hence the light blogging). Now I have to push out v1.1 by October 1 to provide all of the features that didn’t make the cut for v1.0. And the churn goes on.

This is no small accomplishment. I was involved in the development and deployment of such a system twice (don’t ask) and know how complex it can become. Bravo.

Look great, Waldo! I’m by no means even moderately experienced in such matters, but I do know that writing submission forms into Wordpress plugins is hard enough, let alone something that complex :)
