Engage 0.3 QA testing - let the fun begin!

[Justin Obara]

When reporting the issues, it would also be helpful to be as specific as possible as to the location of the issue found. For example indicating the language, the page, the exhibition title (if applicable), the artifact accession number (if applicable), and etc. 

Also where possible it would be good to add screen shots that show case the issue.

You can take screen shots with the iphone/ipod by pressing the home button and standby button at the same time. The image will go to the device's photo album. You can retrieve the image by syncing the device or e-mailing it from the device itself. 

Thanks for all the help
Justin

Testing will start as soon as the developers give the green light, which is expected to be tonight (Thursday, February 18). Here's what will happen once we have the go-ahead:
