Notes
Please the attached PPT for context to the notes below.
In general we had a successful meeting and came to some conclusions about where we are going to go from here. The main points were:
- we will continue with the CM project in pursuit of UCB and SU's objectives for full deployment in Fall '07 (bare-minimum is, both: represent course structures (sections, x-listings, etc.), SU: local admin, UCB: student ID, enrollment status in roster)
- in terms CM tool-building, we are going to stage this effort in these steps:
0 - build upon CM infrastructure (some done with API, but more will need to happen to hook to framework)
- CM API/service
- CM mapping service
- group provider (chain provider that checks who is in which sites
- maybe Dept/Local Admins (LA) could be taken care of with this provider
- LAs would have to be a member of each site rather than which site a person has access to
- might need an UI allows support staff to decide which LAs get placed in which sites
1 - represent course structures in existing new site set-up wizard and represent SIS data (read-only) in a new "structured home" tool
- take out CM provider
- add the hierarchy page, maybe limit
- eliminate Site action so that it would querie CM service, would then
- show which checkboxes show
- then alert CM mapping service
(development for this step begins in August)
2 - bolstered roster tool (likely UCB focus) and local admin capabilities (likely SU focus)
(above is bare-minimum needed for Fall '07, I'm hoping that these will be our end of '06 deliverables)
3 - turn Site Info into site management tool and Section Info into user management tool
4 - full redesign and rebuilding of CM-related admin tools (aka Lexus)
(need to get community support and more resources for options 3 and/or 4)
