Agenda
Planning IRC Town Hall for GSoC?
Minutes
Sync Hackathon in late August.
Deciding what to put on the agenda for today's meeting.
Justin announced new developer in Sri Lanka offering to help with UI redesign.
Planning IRC Town Hall for GSoC and OpenMRS Internship Program?
Interns can interact as group to share what they've worked on so far.
Yea/Nay?
A showcase of projects should be necessary to get feedback on projects.
Objective is more than getting projects done, it's for students to be involved in open source project.
Reviewing OpenMRS 1.5 RC lab
HtmlFormentry and FormEntry are included.
Forms tab on patient dashboard was removed and replaced with an "Enter Form" button under the Encounters tab.
AMPATH needs a data entry interface... our opinion is continue to use Forms tab.
LEMMA: We should not make any significant changed to the UI without discussing it first.
We could make a configuration option to display/hide the forms tab.
Or "FormEntry" tab in core openmrs that can be optionally displayed and that supports any module that wants to add forms related items under the tab.
We should also allow viewing Observations independent of viewing an Encounter.
Separating Encounter from Forms is on Road Map
Under Encounters Tab - Edit and View buttons can be overridden to provide different functionality.
However, behaviors launched by icons should be consistent with the icon. Should use different icons for different behaviors or keep the actions consistent among encounters on the page.
Instead of some icons under View replacing the page and other icons launching a pop-up window, we could consistently use a modal pop-up that grays out the background.
Would be good to review a long, complex form on lab5.
If we decide to use modal pop-up, it is preferable that the ESCAPE key backs out of the modal interface.
AMPATH: only about 1% of Encounters get edited.
Status of Logic Branch?
Needs Code Review.
Deprecate logic that is already in core OpenMRS yes/no? Or move that into a module?
TODO: Schedule a high-level Code Review of logic and move code into trunk.
TODO's before 1.5 release:
Bring back the Form tab on Patient Dashboard.
Remove Edit button under Encounter tab and put it on the page shown by the View button.
Use modal pop-up for action after clicking on an encounter under the Encounter tab.
Clean up version 1.4 critical tickets
Burke does stand up comedy while sitting down.
