Issue 2: week Monday 18 May to Sunday 24 May Greetings
This week was a busy one on and around https://launchpad.net/dhis2 with the trunk revision number moving from 295 to 320 (see summary list of commits below). We also quite a busy week on the mailing list. I'll just try and highlight some of the main conversations here: Ime Asangansi raised a query about exporting data from 1.4 to 2.0 - https://lists.launchpad.net/dhis2-devs/msg01014.html. There were a couple of interesting responses including using IXF, excel and report tables. Johan has been raising a number of critical issues from Sierra Leone - including this one [https://lists.launchpad.net/dhis2-devs/msg01039.html] regarding storing NULLs or zeroes in datamart. Its an ongoing issue which is not going away. Need to make sure we don't lose these inputs. After a flurry of further bug reports and feature requests the inevitable appeals to use launchpad surfaced. Brajesh made an urgent appeal for URL's for organisation units [https://lists.launchpad.net/dhis2-devs/msg01000.html] which resulted in a swift fix from Lars. And how to set up some default min-max ranges without the benefit of historical data? [https://lists.launchpad.net/dhis2-devs/msg01038.html]. Ola took the initiative to register a blueprint dealing with the more general statistical question of how to generate min-max values. See new blueprints below. Abyot is back and we can expect a good deal of this week's discussion to be directed towards the design of the new community based, person-centric module. Trying to automate monitoring blueprints on launchpad is still painful. There is a launchpad api, but somehow blueprints remain outside of that :-( I'm beginning to remember Saprashi's reluctance at the Delhi workshop over the use of launchpad - a non-free software platform where certain aspects of your data is not easily accessible - being an early launchpad supporter I'll just give a little tremor and assume we will solve these problems. I am trying to subscribe to all blueprints and hopefully be in a position next week to capture any changes which occur on existing blueprints. Meanwhile, these are new blueprints which were added this week: 1. Generate spreadsheet forms for data entry and import - https://blueprints.launchpad.net/dhis2/+spec/spreadsheet-dataentry 2. Improve the min/max value functionality - https://blueprints.launchpad.net/dhis2/+spec/improve-minmax-value-functionality And here is the summary of this weeks bazaar commits: 320 Lars Helge Oeverland 2009-05-23 Made the Period constructor protected and updated a few tests. 319 Lars Helge Oeverland 2009-05-23 Added test for datamart 318 Lars Helge Oeverland 2009-05-23 - Added some unit tests for the API. - Service implementation of aggregation level boundaries in data mart. 317 Miri 2009-05-23 Some localization added to Audit functionality. 316 Miri 2009-05-23 Added Audit functionality for Data Values.
