Hello: I have written up a first draft "request for comments" (RFC) of a set of requirements for academic reserves at http://open-ils.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=feature:academic_reserves
The intention of the RFC is to explore the community's needs from an academic reserves system so that we can have a reasonably stable set of requirements before we move into the design and implementation stages. Please read the RFC and post any comments to the list (or send email directly to me, if you prefer). I am particularly interested in finding out: 1) If a feature were built that met the currently expressed requirements in the RFC, would it be lacking any aspects that your users enjoy in your current system? 2) If a feature were built that met the currently expressed requirements in the RFC, would it satisfy your needs? (This is different from #1 in that it is possible to satisfy needs without implementing all possible aspects of competing systems). 2a) If you answered "no" to 2), what else would the feature require to satisfy your needs? 3) What would be the best possible addition(s) to the requirements in the RFC? Many thanks in advance! -- Dan Scott Laurentian University
