Development Process

The IEMSR work is done as Open Source software development using SourceForge to provide the code CVS and release support. The IEMSR work is done in the SourceForge schemas project which hosts the CVS repository and provides live browsing of the CVS for the source code and checking out of IEMSR sources from CVS.

All the software can be retrieved from the schemas SourceForge site in the files area.
