P.S. The Kubrrick Scope Was Ready On Monday
The Kubrrick Scope was the last scope of the Merrcury Engine (the software behind LetMeGo) to be completed for the private beta. I’m writing about it now, instead of prior to the beta launch, because we released the private beta the moment Kubrrick became ready. The Kubrrick Scope includes many of the system’s most traveler-facing features: submitting an itinerary, inviting lodgings to submit bids, and comparing those bids once they are received.
I won’t provide many details here, as beta testers can experience this system for themselves right now. If you would like to become a beta tester, you can apply here.
One of the features of Kubrick is the Heuristic Algorithm for Lodgings (HAL for short) that will match itineraries with lodgings.
Graphic design on the Kubrrick Scope started last year and was created, as with all other scopes, by Javier “Maestro” Mesa. Coding started in November of 2008. Most of the coding and unit testing was done by Henry “Tufla” Canastero. Omar Duque, German “Gonzo” Gonzalez, Nicolas “Nickman” Bohorquez, and Luis Betancourt also contributed to the coding. Automated Selenium testing are being done by Gisella “Gigi” Borja and Sergio Perilla. In other words: almost everybody had a hand in making Kubrrick a reality. Thank you team!

P.S. Kubrrick was not named after a musician (as it is the case for all other scopes of the Merrcury Engine). It was named after one of our favorite movie directors, Stanley Kubrick.
