Agenda, Meeting of Tuesday, June 16, 1998

Administrative

• Someone other than Sarah will take minutes today (since we're doing another lunch meeting).
• I'll be gone next Monday, so I hope we can meet on Friday. I'll be in all day tomorrow (Wednesday) and some of Friday. Next week I should be in all week (except for Monday and scattered times out of the office).
• Games night at the Rebelsky's should be the week after next.
• We might want to start thinking about where to submit your work when it's done. Two possibilities are
  • WebNet98 (in Orlando in November) http://www.aace.org/conf/webnet/finalcall.htm
  • The Small Colleges Computing Consortium Midwest Conference (in Michigan in September, I think)

Annotation Subsystem

• Still needs a name.
• Sarah has a summary report on student opinions on interfaces.
• Hilary has been working on a nice interface for the trees.
• We need to think about the overall architecture of the subsystem.
  • Should annotations be stored in separate files, or in one file per annotated documents.
  • What is the "chain of actions" that happens between page request and page presentation?
• What do we do about group permissions. For example, when a tree contains inaccessible items, should we still show their titles in the tree?

Logging Subsystem

• I assume that Kevin is making regular progress, but details will help keep us informed.

Analysis Subsystem

• I assume that Raphen is making good progress, but also that he has some ideas to discuss with us.
