<h3><a name="tasks" id="tasks">Tasks</a></h3>
<div class="level3">

<p>
The Task Manager is an administration only tab. It is similar to the tracker, with the following differences: 
</p>
<ul>
<li class="level1"><div class="li">  You can insert the start date of the item </div>
</li>
<li class="level1"><div class="li">  You can insert the end date of the item </div>
</li>
<li class="level1"><div class="li">  You can insert the number of hours for the item </div>
</li>
<li class="level1"><div class="li">  You can have multiple assignees for the item </div>
</li>
<li class="level1"><div class="li">  You can handle dependencies between tasks</div>
</li>
</ul>

<p>
  Tasks are organized on subprojects. Before inserting a new task, you must first create a subproject. You can use the &ldquo;Admin&rdquo; link to create new subprojects. Tasks allow you to create and manage tasks, or blocks of work, similar to the way projects are broken down in Microsoft Project or other project management software.

<h3><a name="file_releases_system" id="file_releases_system">File Releases System</a></h3>
<div class="level3">

<p>
The File Releases System (FRS) is used to upload files to the <a href="http://blackfin.uclinux.org" class="urlextern" title="http://blackfin.uclinux.org"  rel="nofollow">blackfin.uclinux.org</a> site and to make these files available to the users in an easy and efficient way. 
</p>

<p>
Files can be divided in different packages, and every single package can be monitored by the users; these users will receive an email every time a new file has been added to the package.
</p>

<p>
The package should be a descriptive name for what the files will be used for.  For example in the XMAME project one package is called xmame while another package may be created called audio drivers. The file name is the name of the file used by the package and the release version is simply the version of the file shown.   
</p>

<h3><a name="cvs" id="cvs">CVS</a></h3>
<div class="level3">

<p>
<acronym title="Concurrent Versions System">CVS</acronym> allows the user to view the current status of a projects code and it allows the user to view the history of any file on the repository. Another advantage of using the <acronym title="Concurrent Versions System">CVS</acronym> repository is that developers often fix bugs in the <acronym title="Concurrent Versions System">CVS</acronym> tree before posting to the public, so if you discover a bug in the software, you should check the <acronym title="Concurrent Versions System">CVS</acronym> tree for the latest update of the file you are working with.  
</p>

<p>
Note: Files on the <acronym title="Concurrent Versions System">CVS</acronym> tree have not gone under tremendous testing, so even though the newest file on the tree may fix your current bug, there may be new bugs associated with the file.  
</p>
