Designing app to allow easier transition: should a configuration file of GUI be made to allow easy setting of certain parameters 9 3 27
Options are being discussed and will be decided after further deliberation
Server access: As developers can’t access server, will maintainers configure back-end on their own or will other avenues be pursued 4 36

56. Technical Debt Security
Encryption of user account information has not been implemented. Testing without security protocols in place decreases the complexity of verifying successful data transfers.
Documentation
Javadocs or automatic wiki generation code has not been created within the current baseline. Time will be dedicated later in the life cycle when the source is mature and ready for documentation.
Compatibility
Only 4 carriers have been tested for message delivery. More carriers can be added during later phases of the software lifecycle for robustness. 56
