Sphinx Sponsor meeting Minutes
Date: February 12th, 3:00 pm Location: ACC G4 workstation
Attendance: Kelly, Randy, Steve, Geoff, and Alex
Introductions: Geoff & Steve to Kelly
Item 1: Demo of backend functionality
Demonstration went well.
Item 2: Assumptions made about outline view:
Kelly asked if we could model the Outliner after PowerPoint.
Item 3: Mapper and Wireframer functionality refinement
Went through complete set of screen shots taken from Inspiration and PowerPoint. We highlighted mandatory menu items, discussed optional functionality, identified features that they have no use for, and talked about toolbar layout and location. (Refer to notes on drawings for details, itemized list to follow).
Item 4: Project expectations, Proof of concept, Minimum functionality set
Kelly understands that this is a huge undertaking, and that there is a risk that we may not be able to develop a fully functional application in the time required.
We tentatively decided on the last week of April for our next meeting. I suggested that our team visit their office in Seattle so Geoff and Steve could see it. (Our goal for this meeting should be to deliver a disc containing complete GUI with minimal/partial functionality that will load and run on their computers).
Item 5: Anything else…
Kelly will use his contacts with Apple to help us find resources for Cocoa/Java development
Kelly suggested that we check out "The Vermont Recipes" as a possible resource
