On to Plone
I started looking on the web for info about Plone, especially the two issues of greatest concern: changing the look ("skinning') and adding non-default metadata. There seems to be good support for skinning, but metadata support seems to be lacking. There's development underway to improve metadata support, so maybe I sould look at the latest beta.

RSS Resubmitted
I finished checking the RSS method, revised the test plan, and resubmitted it to test. Greg had a problem with one of the PAR forms. It turned out that he was using the GET method and the data likely overflowed the maximum buffer size. Changing the request to POST fixed the problem. I'm noting this because I helped look at the problem and it's an interesting thing to know.Posted on Wed, 28 Jun 2006 Tags: rss
PAR Done
I did a thorough test of the PAR, moving it through all the steps and noting the remaining problems. Greg and I fixed these. Then we fixed the remaining problems with the print formatting. So the PAR is now ready for demonstration, but the actual testing probably won't happen until Greg and I are back from vacation. In between times I deleted several defunct branches from LDAP and started looking at my RSS problems again.

PAR Testing
First I updated the list of archive computers for my net stats script. With Greg I worked out the matrix of role and state permissions and revised the PAR code in whichRole to match it. Then I spent the rest of the day testing the PAR form and fixing the mistakes that were found.

PAR Roles and Permissions
I finished work on setting the roles and methods on the index_html page so that people are presented with the appropriate links to user par forms.

More PAR
I updated the script that pulls infro from LDAP so that it pulls in the division info as well. I folded in the par status checking into the supervisor info table.

PAR Status
We did the demo of the input forms for HR today. I also revised the table of supervisor employess so it displays the status of their current par along with a link to the par.

More of the Same
Another walktrhough of the PAR process before tomorrow's demo and got the workflow half installed in the index_html page.

PAR Addiction
I resolved the bug that was plaguing me on Friday and went back to incorporating the actions asscoiated with the workflow. I also did a walktrhough with Greg of the entry forms and helped resolve several of the problems.

PAR Debugging
I spent the day debugging the PAR status code included in the index_html page. Everything now works, except for one fairly large error: the code that selects the form to display is still incorrect.
