Another profitable team meeting

Our team had a meeting this Sunday. We spent almost 4 hours going through all the stuff that needed to be done. It was actually a kind of coordination sessions, and we finally accomplished several things:

- We worked on the slides, which are now ready for the final pitch. In fact, we are going to have a last practice pitch next Friday at Ackley's office. I think this will provide us a very useful feedback.
- Natalie updated the code that determines the duration of a day and a week, because we had been assuming that a day was 20 seconds (for testing purposes).
- I finished the Frequent Asked Questions page
- I added links to the FAQ page and Contact form both from the homepage and profile page.
- I made some changes in the contact form. Concretely, I became some critical variables (Gmail account and password) in the application.rb file from plain text, to environment variables. We still have to test them, because we were not able to make it work properly.
- Natalie and Matt S. fixed several important bugs regarding to the check-in and abandon challenge buttons.
- Matt F. created a Google document with the headlines of the speech we are planning to make.
- We also made a practice pitch with the updated slides and the new demo. It seems that it is going to be better than the previous ones.

This week, we will work basically on running some test, trying to find bugs before the final demo. Additionally, we have to prepare the final group turn-in, which is due to the next day of the final project showcase.
