JIRA Backlog and Epics

Possible way to use jira-epics/issues to commonly follow progress:

Based on the system architecture (see System Architecture). Each country can of course have other epics/issues as well and are free to drill into these in their own way. But a common high level epic-structure allows for common reporting. This structure is also focused on achieving the end goal of being ready for the field trial.

Suggested EPICS:

• Study course search and selection
• Authentication
• Communication between nodes (NCP/SMP/EMREG/SIS)
• Logging
• UAT
• Ready for field trial

EMREX-36 Administrator access to logs (Logging)

It is possible, at least in Finland, to link from the jira-epics/issues to wiki. Thus there is no need to update wiki, it will automatically be updated with the latest jira-status of the tickets shown. As an example (you might have to be logged in to see the actual description and status?):

Finland- NCP develoment:

Unable to locate Jira server for this macro. It may be due to Application Link configuration.

Collaboration tools for developers

The project uses flowdock as a chat-tool. Please keep it open and check if there are any quick questions that you can answer.

Anybody can invite others, so you can invite your colleagues. Or send an email to Mats and he'll add you

Other stuff

WP3 tasks are mainly technical ones. Based on the requirements from work package 2, implement technical solution for National Contact Points and the Student Mobility Plug-in. The work package will be executed through regular project meeting and workshops, both face to face and remote meetings. There will be organized workshops for development and deployment for these solutions.

Activity: Open Source mechanisms

The code developed in the project will be open source. The mechanisms to share this code will be clarified in this WP

Activity: Development of National Contact Points

A National Contact Point has to be developed for each country. In this work package, a foundation for such a contact point will be developed. Based on this foundation each partner in the project signed up for implementing the solution will develop their own.

Activity: Development of Student Mobility Plug-ins

The Student Mobility Plug-in is a common service for collecting data from other higher institutions, via a National Contact Point. The student will be in control of the data exchange.

Activity: Deployment of the National Contact Point and the Student Mobility Plug-in

Each partner signed up for implementing the solution must deploy the National Contact Point and the Student Mobility Plug-in in one or more web applications for applicants and/or students.

Activity: Security

The information exchanged in this solution is personal. It is necessary to implement solutions to secure the integrity and confidentiality in the data exchange.

Activity: Technical documentation

Make technical documentation for the National Contact Point and the Student Mobility Plug-in, including examples of use.

ELMO

ELMO is uses as exchange format in EMREX. More information at the pages for WP6 Standardisation

A viewer has been developed to show the contenct of an ELMO document in a more human way. This code can as well be used as a starting point for the ELMO viewer in NCP's and Emrex-clients.

The viewer can at the moment be testes at this site: http://matija.no/elmo/
