Hi Pete,

Is it possible to have an option to export it as an XML feed?

Kind regards,

Subject: [Ldsoss] ward list export

We'd like to add the option to export the ward list from the unit website
either as a csv file or as vcards.

Issues/questions:

1. Most of the text is stored in caps. We plan on just leaving it as-is for
simplicity. If someone wants to propose a clean, simple, safe way to
decapitalize in TCL, feel free to send it my way.

2. For the csv export, what should each row look like?

 a) name, email, phone, addr (one row for every member of the ward) - this 
    is the easiest to do but might not be as useful.
 b) family, head of household, head of household email, phone, addr 
    (one row for each family) - this is about as easy to do as the above.
 c) family, head of household, head of household email, spouse, spouse
email, 
    phone, addr (one row for each family)
 d) everything above, plus one large field containing all of the children's 
    names, and emails
 e) similar to above, but each child would get their own pair of columns
    (name and email) making each row vary in the number of columns - this
    would imply that the children are going to be at the end of the record.

Sorry we can't do unique phone numbers per person - it isn't supported in
the current database.

3. Similar questions for vcard...
