Release 2.0.1

@Jake Watson (Deactivated) suggests that the product committee form releases in the future.

 

Re-arch

@Jake Watson (Deactivated) covers the re-arch, that it's occurring the week of MAr 28th.  Held in Seattle.  Jake and Darius co-facilitating the discussion of architecture, design, and possibly use-cases.

After the design session, VR will do further refinement on estimations to submit a proposal to gates to accelerate the development of "v3".  Attendees should be VR, PATH, TW, CHAI...  JSI couldn't attend.

 

@Chris George (Unlicensed) asks if there has been an avenue to submit their architectures.  @Jake Watson (Deactivated) says not really, the venue for that will be this meeting.  There will be a technical readout and be opened up for future discussion

 

GeoJSON

@Elias Muluneh walks through the upload of GeoJSON from the Admin → Manage → Geographic Zones

Intended to be a one time type of operation

Select which level and upload the file

Drag geo data from file to matching zone in DB.

 

There is a problem with rendering shape files in the browser with just HTML5.  GeoJSON was much better supported.

@Jake Watson (Deactivated) thinks that spatial queries and visualizations are needed for various future OpenLMIS problems. 

@Chris George (Unlicensed) shares Nyaruka's GeoJSON dataset:  https://github.com/nyaruka/posm-extracts/tree/master/geojson

 

@Jake Watson (Deactivated): if there is a way to geo-tag collected data, it's easy to use in a report later.  Design should have a focus on enabling spatial queries.

 

Final question:

@Chongsun Ahn (Unlicensed) asks about the 2.0-moz branch, and if we can move it off into it's own repo.  @Chris George (Unlicensed) says he'll followup soon, and that their goal is to get back on the latest release v2.0.1.   There is a question about the migrations (from serial to timestamp)...  (hard to hear)

 

Action items

@Chris George (Unlicensed) and @Chongsun Ahn (Unlicensed) to followup on moving 2.0-moz to a new branch
@Josh Zamor (Deactivated) to followup with @Jeff Xiong (Unlicensed) about adopting Google Code standard.
Change this meeting time due to daylight saving?
