Re: EVA database: Now we are back to business

[Doru Pop]

Dear all, I agree that the discussions on the forms were very important and I hope this would bring the project further. It would be great to have by mid August both the public and the private site of EVA (the improved versions) up and running.

I looked over the forms sent in this mail by Cai, but it seems they follow the logic before the discussions and that the simplifyed versions should be discussed.

About the new partners.

All new partnership should be made following the principles we agreed upon as follows.

A new partner must write an intent letter to me saying they want to join EVA on the basis of providing at least 1 course for each 10 students brought into the project, or 2 courses minimum, one per each semester (Autumn and Spring). I will then have to ask the permission of EU for these new partners.

As of January 2013 we are able to draft a new agreement (as a consortium or otherwise), since the EU agreement ceases to be in place.

All the best, 

Doru

Dear all

After all we had a very good meeting -  thanks to you all for your commitment. I’m sorry for my bad mood, but now sitting in my new cosy hotel room with a decent internet connection everything looks brighter again.

I was very hesitant about having a session yesterday – was afraid it would be a complete waste of time – but in fact we did many important complementary additions  to the work we did on Thursday.

 

Angel has also been busy (I thought he was still having holidays) and he sent last night three new forms to Christopher, Lucian and me. I copy at the end of this message Angel’s email and my reply.

THEN: I must apologize for not showing you the visual drafts of the forms we already created before the meeting. Showing them on the screen would have been very helpful, but I was lost because I didn’t have access to my normal online desktop. (Kind of scary how dependent on online access I’ve become.)

I copy here the online form DRAFTs we already have/had before the meeting. After I receive the meeting notes from Cesare/Chiara (and Robert please send the pics you took yesterday) I will edit them accordingly + design the form we agreed on yesterday.

 

So here are the online form drafts we have now (I only showed the resulting database sheet):

EVA course module implementation (the one I sent in spring, but I edited according to what I remember we decided on the meeting):

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dEg0OUttTzBQaGxTTEdiMXlncHpwUWc6MQ#gid=0

 

LIBRARY: Adding a library resource (not yet updated):
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dHU1a2NDVTNZWEtoWUwyVGU1VGJFY0E6MQ#gid=0

 

BLOG POST form (We decided to skip this, because no-one has anything to post on EVA blog):
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dC1xNFNMd2ZCX0hYNWx0MlpGSVphT0E6MQ#gid=0

New form drafts sent by Angel yesterday right after our meeting. I will finalise when I get the meeting minutes:

LIBRARY: Advanced search form:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dHg3cnJtMVF0VlMyb05ZWWhhSlNoVmc6MQ#gid=0

 

LIBRARY: Quick search form:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dGZFM0Zud3JNOThJLUQwVlplblh2WVE6MQ#gid=0

 

Contact form

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dFAxWll4YnRJejdQQlZmUE1WUlQ0Wnc6MQ#gid=0

 

And I just designed the university form:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dDdXbk1nMWJFX2JKSTBXMmlXVEt1bEE6MQ

You can find all forms in the Google Docs folder EVA/Database and forms:
https://drive.google.com/?hl=fi&tab=wo&pli=1&authuser=0#folders/0B2y2ZTTHtjssZExGbjVRTFJoWjQ

 

When you open a form, you see the spreadsheet with the output of filled forms (there are not many). To see the actual online form you click on the Form menu and choose “Go to live form”.

TAMK will design all the forms needed, but your input is essential to make it happen the right way.

Best wishes

Dear Christoph,

 

I have added 3 more forms. One is a contacting form, then, a quick search form and an advanced search form for the library. Feel free to add comments on them.

Dear Angel, Christoph and Lucian

 

Please put forms, database and report development on hold. We had yesterday and today project board meeting in Milan and finally we seem to have a joint vision on how things developed. We specified the fields really needed but there are some details yet to be finalized.

It would be important to have the website with the new functions running for the next board meeting in Cluj August 30-31. But how is it with your holidays, Christoph and Lucian? I’m basically having my holidays still next week and back in office August 6^th. Is it possible Christoph designs the tables and relations and has Lucian time to implement everything over the three last weeks of August?

Angel, do you have time for a meeting on August 6^th? (Please reply to me only)

 

I’m very happy the project board had a fruitful workshop allowing us to implement this part of the project.

Looking forward to hearing from you all soon!

Best wishes from Milan
