Kevin -
The main todo item for functional usage of the Project code is
the form handling, and using Turbine for authentication & database
connection. Some of these other issues go to style more than function.
Before I agree to use Turbine for the database creation, I need to
make sure that Turbine can handle the kind of metadata description
that I have made. I described the database creation process in detail
when I first began this, explaining that the database is automatically
generated and traversed using specific metadata - I will have to
determine if Turbine can provide this. There is no intermediate
generation of scripts -- I directly create the database and subsequently
use the same meta description for the management of the data. MySQL and
Postgres are both handled at the present time.
I also need to take a fresh look at the APIs provided by JetSpeed
to properly determine the benefit and effort required to integrate
into the JetSpeed framework. I do intend to take advantage of the
Turbine authentication and database connections.
