[11:23:27 CDT(-0500)] <Patty_> Jason - Chatted with Doug

[11:23:35 CDT(-0500)] <Patty_> he has some time this week and early next for some MAP testing

[11:30:22 CDT(-0500)] <Patty_> I assume that there are no checks and balances in MAP that would look for courses that I have added multiple times?

[11:32:55 CDT(-0500)] <JasonElwood> there are none in the design, mostly because courses can be added multiple times

[11:33:23 CDT(-0500)] <Patty_> ok. Just checking.

[12:22:47 CDT(-0500)] <js70> patches? PATCHES? we don't need no stinking patches...

[12:22:59 CDT(-0500)] <js70> :^)

[13:04:04 CDT(-0500)] <js70> Jason, if you could find some time today and pull into the current iteration what else I need to do, that would be great. Having trouble finding issues, including the one with the student intake. Thanks.

[13:10:28 CDT(-0500)] <JasonElwood> Jim- What priority is SSP-878?

[13:11:02 CDT(-0500)] <js70> have no idea.

[13:11:47 CDT(-0500)] <js70> took a look at it early, initial attempts were not successful will require some research and trial and error.

[13:12:17 CDT(-0500)] <js70> my guess is at least a full day probably 2

[13:12:34 CDT(-0500)] <JasonElwood> is it a severe error when it happens?

[13:12:54 CDT(-0500)] <js70> yes, and its confusing.

[13:13:15 CDT(-0500)] <JasonElwood> ugh

[13:13:45 CDT(-0500)] <js70> comes back with an error page as a json string.

[13:14:23 CDT(-0500)] <JasonElwood> it is assigned to 2.0 and affects 1.2.0. is this the success, false message?

[13:15:20 CDT(-0500)] <js70> its no longer a false message, should only happen when the website has timed out and the user is on the report page. you should only get to the report page if you have permission to run reports.

[13:15:36 CDT(-0500)] <js70> so only admins.

[13:17:06 CDT(-0500)] <JasonElwood> I'll move it out of 2.0

[13:18:17 CDT(-0500)] <js70> kool, this is fun!

[13:18:28 CDT(-0500)] <JasonElwood> there are two in the current for you now

[13:18:39 CDT(-0500)] <JasonElwood> I'll add on to finish the Main Tool

[13:20:39 CDT(-0500)] <JasonElwood> If you think you have time, there is another student intake field that would could include while Student Intake and MyGPS are open

[13:20:43 CDT(-0500)] <JasonElwood> SSP-1062

[13:20:52 CDT(-0500)] <JasonElwood> scheduled for the next iteration

[13:22:22 CDT(-0500)] <JasonElwood> sorry Tony

[13:48:53 CDT(-0500)] <js70> k, thks.

[15:08:06 CDT(-0500)] <js70> Jason, my understanding is that allowed race values will come from a list that is stored in configs?

[15:09:13 CDT(-0500)] <JasonElwood> not configs. it needs to be an admin reference item

[16:46:29 CDT(-0500)] <js70> just so you know, map works by far best in chrome.

[16:47:25 CDT(-0500)] <js70> chrome and safari have comparable displays but safari is significantly slower. Firefox is fast but renders poorly.

[17:01:22 CDT(-0500)] <JasonElwood> Does the config service only manage the rows in the config database table? Is there anything similar for configuration.js?

[17:01:48 CDT(-0500)] <dmccallum54> there is no API for configuration.js b/c it's already a client-side data structure

[17:02:38 CDT(-0500)] <dmccallum54> need to find a way to move everything in there to the config table, tho

[17:04:26 CDT(-0500)] <JasonElwood> so the approach would .. that's what I was typing

[17:05:53 CDT(-0500)] <dmccallum54> https://issues.jasig.org/browse/SSP-489

[17:06:24 CDT(-0500)] <dmccallum54> i dont think we should pursue the portlet preferences approach described there

[17:06:54 CDT(-0500)] <dmccallum54> since we've already got a config table

[17:07:01 CDT(-0500)] <dmccallum54> but we do need a UI for managing that thing

[17:08:51 CDT(-0500)] <JasonElwood> agreed. top 5 annoyances for me
