2. Keith Jenkins

Meeting Notes from Keith/Simeon discussion Fri 2 Apr to discuss his involvement.. Keith's duties include reference work so he familiar with the current system and with the requirements of users. He estimates that there would be about 60k entries/year with 30-50 people using the system. Keith is keen to take on the task of creating a new system and would likely then maintain it. His plan would be to:

  1. use JSON log file as beck-end "db" (expect to roll over yearly, thinks 60k entries would not be too big to parse in order to answer query)
  2. new entry is append of JSON to log file
  3. web end - php and JSON, jQuery for UI
  4. back end - php, apache, modphp
  5. has ideas about UI and how reporting in different places/libraries might want to record different levels of data
  6. effort estimate: 1 week

Keith thinks it unlikely that he could contribute effectively to a Drupal based project because he isn't familiar with Drupal.

Questions - what are the minimal reporting requirements? What statistics need to be generated?

3. Outsource

Would have to get work done in an appropriate toolset so that DLIT could sensibly maintain. How much would this cost?
