Re: survey of existing concepts

 

Hi all,
I would like add a little stone to the building...
I thank that that we may use a mix of both concepts. Let DHIS come completly to let the imagination of the designer free to create ways of using the tool or imagine new designs to meet his specific plementation needs. In addition to that as Bob is proposing we may give option to load some pre-configuration settings via dxf files. You could have for instance:
- community base template
- GIS centric templates
- WHO indicators centric templates
- etc.

An we could allow implementers to share their custom configurations on DHIS2 websites as we do with firefox ad dons.

I think that this way the flexibility of the tool will be preserved and the design process could be speed up a little bit depending on the needs.

Regards

Or is that bootstrapping to aid designing :-)

Seriously though, whether this is done internally (ie from inside the
distributed war) or externally is not a major decision we have to make
now.  What I'd still like is some suggestions around what might be in
a core set of useful concepts.  I've had one suggestion which is
"nothing at all"  That's an easy one to deliver.  Any others?  Maybe
its too early to ask this before we see some functionality.

In defence of external bootstrapping kits, one could better address
i18n concerns this way.
