  1. Backend thoughts on a relational-style DB instead of the jsonb blobs?
    • Agreed with our opinion, relational is better
  2. Where to develop?
    • Branch and continuous PRs on folio-org repo? (Push access?), or
    • Entirely on fork and one big PR for rewrite
    • Left up to us
  3. Where should user documentation go for how to use the tool?
  4. Can I ask Dmitri and/or Alex questions on Slack regarding workflows/code if needed?
    • Dmitri would be best

Looking at the proposed mockups (https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1o_hMdULtPxS4yK1zJ_kqwlegJyX3Xw8ghBlxJyJySto/edit ), I'd like to propose a few differences:

  1. On slide 6, remove the "Closed" option for regular hours and only have defined openings.
    • This greatly reduces confusion of what needs to be explicitly vs implicitly marked as closed (e.g. if open from 9-5, does midnight-9 and 5-midnight need to be specifically marked closed? Only full days? etc).
    • Much more user-friendly IMO to only provide open hours and have the rest default closed.
    • Leave explicitly marking whole days as closed
  2. On the first view of the pane (slide 2), I'd like to separate out calendars and the service points they apply to.
    • This would make things much cleaner (especially as the list of calendars grow; ten service points and calendars across eight semesters results in 80 entries)!
    • Allow the creation of calendars separately and then apply them to multiple service points (I believe intended design, just not well-conveyed with current mockups)
    • Drilldown on calendars allow editing, drilldown on service points shows current detailed hours and previous/upcoming calendars
    • Re-evaluate after mock-ups
