Time:
6:15pm-6:45pm
Location:
Room 158, 2nd Floor, Wheatley Building
Attendants:
Yuan-Hsun Tang, Brian Sullivan, Fangyan Xu and Michael Kouyessein
Recorder:
Fangyan
On the
agenda:
· PHP testing
PHP does not really have testing, it’s just be there and client can run the program. So our team does not really have build.
· Write the editor in Java instead of PHP as an alternative (suggested by Prof. Bolker)
The problem is that IIS does not support JSP, so this idea might not work out well. We have to find more information about this and decide which language to use.
· Easy install for MediaWiki
In order to use SWEET, the client has to install MediaWiki. The MediaWiki installation is not very handy right now, so we need to make it simple for our users. Also set the pre-condition to get MediaWiki installed.
· Multiple versions of MediaWiki testing
For our SWEET release, we need to test on various versions of the MediaWiki.
·
Presentation
Basically the presentation will have 12 slides with 2-5
bullet points on each. We should be able to discuss each slide for 2-3 minutes
and leave time for questions.
Ideas on the draft presentation:
Slide one: history of wiki, introduction information
about wiki
Slide two: Screen shot for the regular wiki interface
Slide three: Screen shot for SWEET interface
Slide four: SWEET functionalities: Suggested links
from internal wiki and from search engine such as from Google and Fast
respectively.
Slide Five: SWEET functionalities: Easy to write
(works as easy as using a spell checker); what you see, what you get.
Slide Six: SWEET functionalities: wiki’s markup
ability and SWEET’s markup ability
Slide Seven: Why using SWEET?
Slide Eight: Who will use SWEET? Targeted audiences?
Slide Twelve: Social Impact.
We still to make more slides and expend the contents. Brian
volunteers will work on the draft version and Fangyan will revise and expend.
