>If your app needs to launch on a specific day (it doesnt), it should have been uploaded and field tested at least a couple of weeks in advance. That's silly. Coordinated marketing around app releases is a big deal, and plenty of teams are cramming in features and bugfixes till the last minute. ~~~ The only thing a student can do is choose when to submit. Therefore the upload time should either be 1. given, (what a nice prof!) 2. unsurprising (i.e. on par with similar UX's of the age) 3. fuzzy (12:03am is okay, 8:57am is not) 4. determinable (e.g. via overwritable submission and a success notification) There are a handful of important, ambiguous, and strict deadlines in the real world, so if that's what the prof is trying to teach, bravo. Or if they're trying to get students to do the test in #4. But that's rarely what's going on. Disclaimer obviously I was one of those… X~D
