Final Milestone Report — §3: Executive Summary

[mehmetborasarioglu]

📝 Description

Write the Executive Summary of the Final Milestone Deliverables wiki page. Six numbered sub-points are required by the template; each should be a short, honest paragraph backed by the project's actual state.

🎯 Goal

Give a reviewer a one-screen read that summarises where the project ended up, what shipped, what was learned, and what would have been done differently.

📦 Deliverables

Six sub-sections, each 1–3 paragraphs:

1. Project Status Summary — overall outcome vs. original scope.
2. Deliverable Status — which deliverables are completed / partially completed / missed.
3. Final Release Notes — features delivered between MVP and Final Milestone (mentorship lifecycle, meetings, tasks, milestones, social feed, follow/unfollow, ban system, push notifications, etc.).
4. Process Improvements — concrete process changes made after MVP (e.g. shorter iterations, earlier stakeholder review, vertical-slice delivery — see Lab 8 retrospective).
5. Final Milestone Demo Reflections — what worked / what surprised the team during the demo (filled in after the demo).
6. What Could Have Been Done Differently — at-project-start decisions in retrospect.

✅ Acceptance Criteria

• All six numbered sub-sections present with content (no placeholder text).
• Sub-sections 4 and 6 reference the Lab 8 retrospective explicitly.
• Sub-section 5 cannot be filled in until after the demo — leave a to be filled after demo placeholder pointing to §4.7 if the demo hasn't run by submission time.
• Length: ≤ 1.5 pages rendered.

📌 Notes

• Reuse content from the Project Retrospective wiki page for sub-sections 4 and 6.
• Don't repeat detail that lives in §4 (Progress Based on Teamwork) — that section carries the per-member and per-requirement breakdown.
