Overview

The purpose of the platform corrective and evolutive maintenance is to address bugs and feature requests.

The main evolutions of the Rodin platform are driven by the description of work for the Rodin project and the requirements expressed by industrial WP1 to WP5 partners or by consultants during the lifecycle of the project.

Beyond that, any user registered on SourceForge may record any encountered bug on the Rodin platform or request a new feature, using the dedicated trackers. Depending on the category, the bug / feature is assigned to the WP9 partner who is in charge of its treatment:
