[16:08:36 CST(-0600)] <athena> i think it should be pretty simple to add
[16:08:46 CST(-0600)] <athena> basically we need to add a notion of term and which term is current
[16:08:50 CST(-0600)] <athena> then let users select between them
[16:08:51 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> so he'd have to modify the UI, portlet data model and DAO API layer for terms + grades
[16:08:56 CST(-0600)] <athena> yep
[16:09:02 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> and then write a custom DAO impl for our SOAP services
[16:09:13 CST(-0600)] <athena> even just a select menu for semesters at the top would be an OK start 
[16:09:17 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> yeah
[16:09:31 CST(-0600)] <athena> here's our sample XML file: https://source.jasig.org/sandbox/CoursesPortlet/trunk/courses-portlet-webapp/src/main/resources/mock-data/mock-course-summary.xml
[16:09:32 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I was thinking you could do like: "<< Spring 2012 >>"
[16:09:41 CST(-0600)] <athena> some of the data isn't super structured yet - like the meeting times
