Meeting at Sci2 and the Dome, Monday October 07, 2002. 11:30 to 13:30 hours.
Members Present: Scott Fadick, Patrick Johnson, Ray Trussell. |
| Meeting dates. |
The team has decided to meet Monday afternoons from 1130 to 1230, staying later as needed. The team will also be able to meet briefly after class on Tuesdays and Thursdays as needed to discuss issues that need to be resolved prior to the next regularly scheduled meeting.
|
| Team Name. |
Of the proposals, the team liked Scott Fadicks proposal best -“Monkey Wrench”. The proposal was approved unanimously. We are now Team Monkey Wrench.
|
| Team Logo. |
Some concepts and ideas were discussed regarding drawing a logo, or having somebody draw a logo for the team. A proposal was put forth to find suitable clipart on the internet, and the team made a collective search. A suitable clipart monkey was found, and after discussion was approved by all of the team members. Some photo shop work will be required to adjust the image to our needs.
|
| Site Setup. |
The team approved of putting the site up on Scott Fadick’s server. Mr. Fadick has already established space for the site as well as made plans to make accessible to the team members via the World Wide Web. It is planned that the capability to adjust and upload files will be added shortly, so that all of the team members will have access to all sections of the project. A system to save copies of changes to each file was discussed, and needs more investigation before it can be implemented.
|
| Design of Meeting Minutes Template. |
A discussion was held to determine the best mode to display the minutes on the site, balanced with the ease of use by the team members. A rough template was sketched out, and deemed satisfactory by all team members with the understanding that it can be changed as needed to suit our needs in the future
|
| Evaluation Criteria. |
The criterion with which each team member would best be evaluated by was discussed and prepared.
|
| Rapid Prototype Design and Layout. |
A rough draft was composed on paper by the team members. Mr. Johnson will do a more formal draft on paper for team evaluation before it is to be implemented.
|
| Work Allocation. |
Mr. Fadick will continue to set up the server for use; its immediate purpose will be to handle the prototype and meeting minutes which he will post. He will implement the prototype once Mr. Johnson completes the formal draft and it is approved.
Mr. Johnson and Mr. Fadick will implement the rapid prototype and its associated pages based upon the sketches, outline, and question pool that the team assembled during the meeting.
Mr. Trussell will work on the monkey clipart for the logo and assemble the minutes.

Meeting at Sci2, Third floor, Monday October 14, 2002. 11:30 to 13:15 hours.
Members Present: Scott Fadick, Patrick Johnson, Ray Trussell. |
| Discussed site design. |
Organization for the rapid prototype, as well as the project itself, were discussed at length. A concern involving the use of drop down boxes versus text boxes was disussed. It was decided to hold this issue over until the next meeting as it was felt that the rapid prototype was simply to display the planned features and implementation, thus the text boxes will be fine for the interim.
A topic of concern was found in whether the Admin user (the scheduler) should be able to add their own and/or delete existing questions. The ability to change the survey questions, or add specific questions in the future that may become more pertininent, would be a powerful tool, however the implementation would be lengthy. Dr. Ouyang will be able to answer this question for us in the next class.
|
| Server setup and file updating. |
Mr. Fadick briefed the team on how to transfer files to and from the server. An issue involving the extension name being changed by Internet Exploer during the download was discussed. The resolution to this problem will be that the files will be htm files, thus insuring less concern for error during the transfer. Also, the backup system is in place, and in the event a file is corrupted, all changes will be reflected in the backups. A problem was found in uploading files from the University. An issue with the school's firewall is suspected.
|
| Task Allocations |
The first version (if there is to be more than one) of the rapid prototype is complete, no project items are due. The team concluded the meeting and returned to working on individual midterm assignments.

Meeting at The Dome,Monday October 21, 2002. 11:30 to 12:30 hours.
Members Present: Scott Fadick, Patrick Johnson, Ray Trussell. |
| Reviewed server file upload procedures. |
All file up and downloads appear to be working without error.
|
| Discussed the "add a question" feature |
Per Dr. Ouyang, it is a nice feature but in no way required. Given time and requirements of the project we may be unaware of, the decision to add it to the implementation will be held off.
|
| Work Allocation. |
Went over project work allocation for the upcoming week. Each member is handling a portion of the workload so that no one member is unfairly burdened.
