Lifecycle stage: 1 --proto-- 2 ->- [3]--evolving-- 4 ->- 5 --complete-- 6 ->- 7 --mature-- 8

Software for Version 0.1 : Skype or Google Hangout + MathIM (a math enhanced chat) + PlanetMath forums, articles, collections, groups, and questions (This version is working now.)

Future versions:

• Improvements to PlanetMath to make it easier for teachers and students
• Tutorial booking and payments system
• More content (books, syllabi)

In order to progress to Stage 4, we need to run the course we are curently developing. We plan to start this in September and run the course for 10 weeks. This project has the benefit of having a built-in business model, so we're able to prioritize it. If it works, we can scale to meet demand.
