What I've done

• Further refinement of the data model based on feedback. We received excellent comments from all the AUSTLIT subject experts and Kerry Kilner this week, with more to come.

• Began documenting relationships between the major entities

• Mini web site has been (temporarily?) moved to the "Group" share under "AUSTLIT/ALEG/DevWWW"

• Start thinking about data maintenance user interface requirements.

• Continue thinking/discussions on visualisations of the complex relationships - trying to come up with a browse model which users will find intuitive and useful.

• Define the "topics" we want to record, organise them in hierarchies and define relationships with major entities

• Continue discussions on and refinement of the data model.

• Probably in late (10-11?) Tuesday, maybe away Friday AM

• Start thinking about data maintenance user interface requirements.

• This week's feedback has clarified lots of issues, but some (particularly the 'taxonomy' of form) are still open. Hopefully, next week will see the data model and relationships pretty-much complete with all major issues decided, and a first cut at the topic structure.

  I am also planning to start producing screen mockups for data entry for comment late in the week - these won't be "operational" or even medium-definate, just ideas to provoke discussion.
