OK - nearly finished my Data class, which creates, deletes, locks records, etc, etc.
Can somebody who has finished tell me what approx. portion of the assignment this represents? I kind of figure I am about one third of the way through, have yet to do GUI (another third) and networking/server (final third).
Is that about right? Just psyching myself up re how far I have to go!!

User Interface (40 points) Locking (80 points) Data class (40 points) Server (40 points)
(Note: I changed the order, and introduced a blank line)
You are working on General Considerations, Object-Oriented design, and Documentation all through your assignment (you are, aren't you ), so I have separated them from the more tangible sections.
Now if you have Data and Locking working, the Sun thinks you have completed 3/5 of the project (120 / 200 points).
Of course it is not quite so cut and dried as that - but at least you get some feeling for where you are.
