VetMed Sakai Developer Meeting

Shortened meeting due to room being booked by another group - convened in Ray's office. I was not present initially for Beau and Keith's updates. Dave, Rick and I joined in late.

Rick - Captivate demo deadline for spring quarter: awaiting final tool list which Chris and Dave will provide. There are about 5 weeks left at this point.

Ray - Instruction begins April 3rd. Everything (Ilios, Sakai, etc.) should be in place at least one week before. Group agreement on March 24th as the goal for preparedness.

Keith - Ilios preparation for spring pilot courses dependent on the content/tools/functions desired. Ray - the interface from Ilios will be backfilled for these courses for spring... even if the fields are not editable by the isntructors.

Ray showed us CF page using AJAX API to allow drop and drag functionality for scheduling. Ray was testing the faculty search function on Mac/Safari. It uses an HTTP request to pull up faculty names; after entering a single letter, user can use up/down arrows or mouse to select the desired faculty from a dynamically generated list.
