Dear List: This may be a bit off-topic. Sorry about that.
I have a long term software development project that I require help with. We are a K-12 independent school in Connecticut. The software is now in it's third version, and we are embarking on version four (from scratch). I anticipate this will be an ongoing project for years to come (in progress 7 years now). What we have currently represents a small subset of the capabilities we will eventually implement. It is implemented in our email/groupware system (FirstClass) but the plan is to abandon that platform due to performance and GUI limitations. This **may** be implemented as a LiveCode client, but so far I have thought in terms of an SQL/php backend, web frontend. Down the road, an iOS client will be needed. To give a thumbnail sketch: Data comes in from many sources: Blackbaud (our Student Information System), the College Board testing service (SAT scores, ACT, other tests), on-line forms....lot's of tab delimited data. In addition, people (using the system) add more data to the related records. Point is - this is more than a viewer - it's also a system for adding and tracking data on students. Eventually, this will become the basis for a number of in-house systems that groups (such as the IT dept, College Counseling dept., Student Health, etc) will use. Anybody want to discuss this more? I have a short lead time - I need version 4 for June. Thanks!
