2009-08-10 Conference Call

Meeting minutes for August 10, 2009

  1. Sakai/OSP 2.6 Issues and Status
    • SAK-12856 Enable sortable columns in OSP tools - Virginia Tech priority, AZ looking at for 2.5.x Nothing new.
    • SAK-15909 Creating Portfolio Template throws stack trace (with invalid schema) Michigan will be installing 2.6 on a test server soon, so they can test it.
    • SAK-15958 Slow performance in Wizards. Chuck Hedrick submitted a nice fix for this. Needs a little cleanup. Would be good to get this in 2.6x.
  2. Sakai 2.7/2.8 Development Status
    • SAK-12922 Configuring OSP to run successfully without autoddl enabled. Nothing new.
    • SAK-16770 Matrix ScaffoldingId parameter lost on import & save. Beth has done some work on this but not checked in any code. She will be out for 2 weeks on vacation, so it would be great if someone else could take a look at this.
    • Lynn Demoed: SAK-13838 Add Forms and Attachments User Interface Rework, Version 2 Suggested that when a cell has no linked assignments, the originating column should be suppressed. For manage status changes, the order of the options should be changed so that change for all users is moved to the bottom and the label changed to something more specific, like "... for all users in this site."
    • Lynn demoed: SAK-16693 Synchronize Portfolio Site Rosters with Associated Course Sites. Question arose of how they identify the roles. Should be documented. What should be done about courses that go out of existence, but you still want the users to be in the site. Noah suggested that the synchronization could be made dynamic by default, but change to static when desired.
    • Merge to Trunk Status: Indiana University Matrices Enhancements (2.7? 2.8?). Hopefully will be done in September.
      • SAK-15822 In Matrices, "manage status for all users" only changes current user
      • SAK-16261 Make the Manage Status function in Matrices and Wizards Group Aware
    • Finer Grained Document-Level Matrix Permissions Updates (Reviewed August 3rd). People should really take a look at this, because it introduces a paradigm shift, in that users will see other people's forms in their own matrix cell.
  3. Other Notes
