* We can deal with this by collapsing the three-page wizard Doodle has into a single page. Be careful not to sacrifice too much simplicity for such a setup.
* No obvious "I can, but would rather not"
* Alleviated also by the above; this might want to be the default poll setup.
+* Trac, one of the first Python web applications to hit mainstream, was long bemoaned for being complex to install. Try not to have the same story
### What to do?
-* [Configure](http://docs.turbogears.org/1.0/Configuration?action=show&redirect=1.0%2FGettingStarted%2FConfiguration) the default TurboGears scaffolding
* <del>Work through the [TurboGears tutorial](http://docs.turbogears.org/1.0/Wiki20/Page1) (the tutorial seems to focus on SQLObject, which is not necessarily the best thing. Maybe someone can find some better docs?)</del>
* <del>Setup database configuration and installer (an auxiliary issue is the presence of an installer for people). (**ezyang**)</del>
* Learn SQLAlchemy (**ezyang**)
* <del>Make sure the default scaffolding works on Scripts (this includes running TurboGears as CGI). Any work done here should be considered for a TurboGears auto-installer, the equivalent of tgsetup) (**ezyang**)</del>
* <del>Write a .gitignore file for generated/not versionable items</del>
* <del>Get friendly URLs working</del>
-* Learn Genshi (The new TurboGear default templating interface for 1.1+)
* <del>Setup a zephyrbot that watches the repository</del>
-* Learn [Widgets](http://docs.turbogears.org/1.0/Widgets) (we'll be using them for all of the forms in this website)
+* [Configure](http://turbogears.org/2.0/docs/main/Config.html) the default TurboGears scaffolding
+* Learn [Genshi](http://turbogears.org/2.0/docs/main/Genshi.html), the templating engine
+* Learn [Widgets](http://turbogears.org/2.0/docs/main/ToscaWidgets/forms.html) (we'll be using them for all of the forms in this website)
* Polish up and get SSL authentication working with TurboGears Identity (the two should be integrated together in a sane manner.)
* Write model classes for all of our tables
* Write controllers for each of the pages
### Architecture
-* **Language**: Python
-* **Framework**: TurboGears
+* **Language**: Python 2.5+
+* **Framework**: TurboGears 2.0
* **SCM**: Git
* **JavaScript**: Mochikit
* **Database**: SQLite for development, ? for production
List of "screens" in Doodle
-* **/**: Home page
+* **/**: Home page (including login)
* **/help**: Help pages (screencasts, interactive JavaScript, etc.)
* **/new**: Schedule event (should be one-page-able)
* General info (title, description, name, email)
* **/events/*event-name*/admin/history**: History
* **/events/*event-name*/admin/reset**: Delete all participants/comments
* **/events/*event-name*/admin/delete**: Delete poll
+* **/signup**: Signup page
+* **/myclockworks**: List of polls created by user, list of polls the user has participated in, links to creating a new event
+ * **/myclockworks/account** provides links to the following four links
+ * **/myclockworks/changeEmail**
+ * **/myclockworks/changePassword**
+ * **/myclockworks/editInformation**
+ * **/myclockworks/delete**
+ * Note: Doodle functions by creating two links per event: one for the public and one for administrator, but anyone can follow either link if they know what it is
## Phase 2
Doodle killer. Extra features. Pump it up.
+* Better UI
* Integration
* Basic: integration with ICS calendars, GoogleCalendar, Exchange, and TechTime (for faculty)
* Advanced: integration with MIT's course schedules, Facebook
* Would store persistent profiles of calendar data for users
* Automatically prioritize and schedule events for you
* Create mobile phone friendly version
+* View of a single calendar month should show "ghosts" of days from immediately previous and immediately past months, to fill out all the weeks.
+* Ability to convert Yes/No polls into Yes/Maybe/No polls (and vice versa)
+* When setting up a new poll, ability to copy-paste the times for any arbitrary row into any number of other arbitrary rows
