Development
The initial development phase is done. All features for the MVP: Camp are available (feature-complete).
3.Ξ±
Alpha
This version serves as a temporary test version, so it still contains some bugs and complicated user interfaces. The data entered on this version will be deleted after this phase.
3.Ξ²
Closed beta
Isolated bugs. As of this version, however, the database was no longer reset. Could be used for real but not time-critical camp planning. The limited number of beta testers had to expect maintenance interruptions.
3.0
MVP: Camp
From this version onwards, eCamp v3 is free to use for everyone. All essential features of eCamp v2 are available for camp planning. Course planning is not yet implemented for this version.
3.1
MVP: Course
After MVP: Camp we are focusing on the features of course planning.
3.X
New Features
Only after the launch of MVP: Course will we devote ourselves to the development of additional features that are not included in eCamp v2. For the time being, we will therefore not accept feature requests.

Questions & Answers
How secure is my data at eCamp?
In addition to the development, the core team also maintains a freely usable instance. The server is operated as a best-effort. For the operation of the server we use modern cloud solutions. This includes regular backups and server updates. Nevertheless we cannot guarantee uninterrupted availability.
What will happen to eCamp v2?
The original eCamp version 2 can be used at https://ecamp.pfadiluzern.ch until further notice. However, the code is getting old and difficult to maintain. For a long time there has been no further development for eCamp v2 except for critical bug fixes. No data is migrated from v2 to v3.
I have a question about eCamp v2
