Code: 1620
Notetaker: Josh

Agenda

  • To Dos from last time (10 min)
    • Daphne to spend time looking at the home tool mock-ups to see if there are any obvious concerns with behaviors between this tool and Section Info.
    • Marc & Daphne need to synch up about Staff vs TA so the tools handle these things the same.
    • Josh to help Linda make sure she is looking at the most recent documentation. Mark N.'s documentation is the most complete but probably not the most up-to-date.
    • Marc to schedule a meeting for he and Daphne to talk through design issues.
  • updates on where we are with the different projects including... (20 min max)

Notes

Attendees: Josh, Linda, Duffy, Marc, Daisy, Daphne, Judy

Daisy had some questions about the Homepage tool
Daisy: Missing an attachment button
Marc: There shouldn't be an attachment there
Daisy: What is the synoptic view expected behavior when other tools are not in the site?

Josh interrupts to as if we can move detailed discussions offline, and keep these meetings focused on inter-tool services, dependencies, etc (along with brief updates)?
Daphne: Maybe we can do quick updates, and keep discussions that are more involved off line.
Daisy: OK, let's take this offline.
Marc: This is a reprecussion of splitting the CM work up.

To Dos from last time

Marc: We punted on "maximum number of students who can be enrolled, an offering type, and offering status, and an enrollment type in addition to the three sets of people described above." for now, due to time pressures due to the conference.
Josh: I will get changes to the CM doc to Linda this afternoon.

Updates on where we are with the CM sub-projects

Duffy: Work on Site Setup is progressing, but I'm stuck on some DHTML... what are the limitations/patterns to use in dynamic pages? Let's talk about it in Atlanta.
Duffy: There was a question about DAOs, but we don't need them for homepage or for site setup, so that isn't really an issue.
Josh: Test suites for the Section Info integration are complete
Daphne: We will post the SI spec today
Judy: Roster should be commit today, so we'll have something to look like on nightly
Linda: Still working on slides for the conference. Doing a review session of work to date tonight. Also working with Unicon for the sakai-side of the integration. Shooting for an impl based on PeopleSoft 9 to be release in Spring/Summer 07. I'm also proposing the CM API for the IMS Enterprise CM Service.

Conference Discussion
Marc: There's a presentation on Thursday @ 2:05pm called "Evaluation of the CM Features of Sakai". Maybe we should find out about that.
Duffy: We should ask the presenters to use caution w/ the phrase CM, since it might confuse folks going to that presentation and/or our presentations.
