| sili_ | heh | 21:11 |
| sili_ | what sort of background to the developers have? | 21:11 |
| th1a | Hi. | 21:12 |
| th1a | Zope and Python. | 21:12 |
| sili_ | for the SIS bit, in particular | 21:12 |
| th1a | It's all Zope 3 and Python. | 21:12 |
| sili_ | th1a: and in terms of experience with education? | 21:12 |
| th1a | Well... I'm a teacher. | 21:12 |
| th1a | Otherwise, the developers don't have much K-12 experience. | 21:13 |
| sili_ | i see | 21:13 |
| th1a | Other than being students. | 21:13 |
| th1a | Not a lot of great open source hackers who have also spent a lot of time in primary and secondary schools. | 21:13 |
| th1a | We do have a related project called CanDo that is run by teachers and coded by students. | 21:14 |
| sili_ | ya... education can be a scary field | 21:14 |
| th1a | What's your angle, sili_? | 21:15 |
| sili_ | i'm leaning back about degrees | 21:16 |
| sili_ | 20* | 21:16 |
| th1a | I tend to form an arc, unfortunately. | 21:16 |
| sili_ | i like to slowly lean in closer and closer to the monitor | 21:17 |
| th1a | I'm working on being more angular. | 21:17 |
| sili_ | then realize, backup, and repeat | 21:17 |
| th1a | I'm also wrestling with Yast trying to get SuSE running on VMware on Ubuntu. | 21:17 |
| th1a | Which is making me increasingly curved. | 21:17 |
| sili_ | i haven't used suse | 21:18 |
| th1a | I want to get iFolder running, and since it is a Novell product, I thought I might have more luck with SuSE. | 21:18 |
| th1a | Anyhow, do you have school/SIS experience, sili_? | 21:26 |
| sili_ | yup | 21:34 |
| sili_ | dataware housing, reporting, SIS | 21:34 |
| th1a | I see... any Python experience? | 21:34 |
| sili_ | i read a tutorial once. | 21:34 |
| sili_ | i'm write a student scheduler as we speak... | 21:35 |
| sili_ | writing* | 21:35 |
| th1a | Do you work for a school district? A company? | 21:36 |
| th1a | Or is this your hobby ;-) | 21:36 |
| sili_ | haha. a company that does k12 software | 21:36 |
| th1a | Ah. | 21:37 |
| sili_ | i guess technically schooltool is competition | 21:38 |
| th1a | In theory. | 21:38 |
| sili_ | right | 21:38 |
| th1a | What part of the world are you in? | 21:39 |
| th1a | st? | 21:39 |
| sili_ | southern cali | 21:39 |
| sili_ | we've managed to find clients in places like MI though | 21:39 |
| th1a | Michigan? | 21:41 |
| sili_ | yup | 21:41 |
| th1a | Do you guys do SIF? | 21:42 |
| sili_ | nope | 21:45 |
| th1a | Are you a Java shop? | 21:46 |
| sili_ | we can SIF in mind though... PHP mostly | 21:47 |
| sili_ | keep* god i keep messing up today | 21:47 |
| th1a | What kind of DB do you use for data warehousing? | 21:53 |
| *** alga has quit IRC | 21:58 | |
| *** mgedmin has quit IRC | 21:59 | |
| *** jinty has quit IRC | 22:16 | |
| sili_ | th1a: postgresql, mysql | 23:47 |
| sili_ | mysql is for our older product; we've learned lessons since then | 23:48 |
| th1a | sili_: I see. | 23:48 |
| th1a | I never know exactly what people mean when they say "data warehouse." | 23:48 |
| sili_ | th1a: from google: A data warehouse is a database geared towards the business intelligence requirements of an organisation. The data warehouse integrates data from the various operational systems and is typically loaded from these systems at regular intervals. Data warehouses contain historical information that enables analysis of business performance over time | 23:50 |
| sili_ | th1a: i interpret it to mean anything that does the job of storing my data and making it usable for reports needed | 23:50 |
| sili_ | i think the specifics are only familiar to marketers :p | 23:54 |
