Minutes

• A plethora of forms have come from the Union for completion, these have been handed out.
• SUSU have lost the 'officers form', we didn't give them the original. (Crwilliams) will give them another copy.
  • In future only copies will be given to the SOCS office, who will be asked to sign for them.
  • It was decided applying for budget to cover photocopying of SUSU forms was deemed 'overkill'

• Steep Close - (morse) has spoken to the node-host
• Omdurman Road - (daveruss) will send another email

• SOWNlib
  • The todo system (and the contact system) is an example of SOWNlib usage.
  • Timing is available for things like SQL queries.
  • Error handling exists, and provides lots of information.
    • 'Production mode' needs enableing to see things like stack-traces.
  • The incantation to start working with SOWNlib is:

require_once 'kohana-lib/include.php'

• • A model needs building of the database, at which point we can start migrating portions of the website to the library.

• Workshop was planned

• Portal
  • There is to be investigation into popups.
  • [[1]] was used.

• • Bandwidth code was questioned again, and will be investigated at the surgery.
