Tom,

Dave, Filip and I had a series of very productive meetings where we
finalized the work-flow of the various CourseInfo objects as they
progress from year to year.  He will be sending you a document with a
nice diagram describing it.

Also, Filip and I were both able to get quite a bit of code written in
the short period of time we were there, and just before I returned, we
drew up the list of tasks Filip describes below.  I believe he is
capable of completing these tasks in the first eight weeks, leaving
him two more weeks for last minute additional tasks, including any
reports Dave feels he needs and that Filip has time to deliver.  They
plan to deploy live after that to multiple schools in Virgina,

Hey Dave,

Alan and I finished today with this list of goals that we have set for
these first 8 weeks. They aren't in any particular order. We do not
have more specific estimates for how much time each of these will
take, but they are do-able in 8 weeks.

    * Create import view for first time population of
PublishedCourseInfoContainer
    * 'Program of Studies Course' link for CurrentCourseInfo page
          o If no POS course found, give a message such as 'This
course is not present in the Program of Studies'.
    * 'Course Revision' page for the CurrentCourseInfo - goes to
'Course Revision' page for the POS Course (see next point)
          o if no POS course found, give same message as above.
    * 'Course Revision' page for POS - "side by side" view
    * 'Program of Studies' and 'POS Revisions' (name?) links from the
School Year view (next to the 'Courses' link)
          o Stretch goal: make these lists
searchable/filterable/paginated, like the Courses list
    * 'Propose New Course' link for CourseInfoRevisionContainer, for
propoing a "revision" to create a new course
    * Course deletion subscriber routine do also remove
CurrentCourseInfo if Course is deleted
    * Update override to SchoolYearAddView to build new
CurrentCourseInfo and PublishedCourseInfo objects
    * Add revision_type, and approval types to CourseInfoRevision
