We are currently missing the linux binary for the FlxExt client libraries from Macrovision, which is preventing us from doing any real testing for the communication with the external filter. We were able to build the vendor daemon side to see some activities from the external filter at checkin/checkout.
(This was discussed in yesterday's meeting, and was promised for today or Friday)
After review with my Dev/QA teams this morning it's clear that the lack of a Linux distribution (or even other Unix distribution) is quickly becoming critical to the completion of our acceptance testing in the timeline desired.
We are going to *require* that the Linux distribution be made available and ready for testing by end of day Friday (June 10) your time. Our team feels this will allow us enough time to setup (weekend likely) followed by the appropriate testing to complete our acceptance (barring major issues). If we do not receive it, it is unlikely that we will complete the testing to our satisfaction in time which will delay final acceptance beyond the end of the month.
Please note that while the "client library" will allow us to make more immediate progress, the full Linux/Unix package will be needed to complete the acceptance testing. If both cannot be provided by Friday, please provide your proposal for alternative deliveries and we can see if that can work or not.
