Daily stories from the ambadoo team, behind the scenes, dev-stats and other random stuff.

An awesome & intense week @ ambadoo labs has come to an end. We’re getting really close and now it’s one week to go until App Store submission.

Magnus Palmér has been totally crushing the back-end. He was only in the project for two and a half week but what he contributed with makes all the difference. Today was his last day at Jayway, the company who’s responsible for all technical development.

It’s sad he’s leaving, not only was it a joy working with him, but he contributed with many thoughts about the whole eco system and would have been great to have on the journey. Right now we have no one that takes his place, but hopefully we will have very very soon. Anyone up for ruby + neo fun? (ping @ronge)

With the hard work in the backend we’ve been able to move along a lot. Most of the basic functionality is in place, or will be Monday. Then we have one week to polish and break test it, so when you download it, there won’t be any surprises.

Aside with the development we’re now preparing launch :D not a day too late. I have been waiting for this as much as you, believe me. It’s been a long, bumpy journey to get here but I guess that’s how it is, or can be. For every blocker there’s a new lesson – and we’ve learnt a lot of lessons. Yet, we’re still on the runway – waiting to take off.

Now some hours of rest.
