Initial Discussion: Wednesday January 9, 2008

Current Status

  • Worked with Jason on a new model
    • Based upon Austin's model
      • Uses DPL
      • Plan to move to Semantic MW
      • Austin's model used a project form with a date header
      • Jason's model permits entry by date
        • Splits dates into project views
        • Projects are based on main page
        • Projects creaetd using a template and "create box"
        • All Entry pages (by date) can be accessed from the Project view
        • Currently uses an intermediate file to rewrite entries as they are created
        • DPL allows these pages to be viewed in a clean format
        • Currently finishing mods Jason and I agreed to on 1/8/2008
