You're right. For now, your priorities probably are :

1. Have a working, reliable and documented build process as soon as 
possible. This includes packaging (zipping all files and stuff).

2. Fix any obvious bugs thereafter. I'll give you my best guesses on 
what to look for in the code, and help you get familiar with it. 
Deadline: the week before NoR.

3. Try to preemptively adapt ARDB to the new set by looking at the 
previews. Also nag LSJ about new features and ask some insider info 
(like the new CSV columns or format changes).

4. Nights of Reckoning comes out. Check that ARDB has the features to 
make use of it - New search filters, new icons, etc.

5. About a week after, the CSV files get updated by LSJ. Pray and try to 
import them. Enter Flurry of Bugfixes.

6. Package, upload and announce the new ARDB
