Hello, As you probably know mySociety is working on a new approach to transparency sites, one that revolves around 'components'. The idea is that you combine small pieces that handle specific tasks and together they let you build a site.
MapIt is a component that lets you store boundary data, and PopIt lets you store details on People, Organisations and Positions. I've just completed a full description of PopIt and would very much like some feedback on it. There is still a lot of work to do and this is not a launch, but rather a request for your opinions on our plans. There are two documents, one is the complete overview that explains the purpose and intent: https://github.com/mysociety/popit/wiki/PopIt-Overview The other is a detailed feature discussion that covers how we'll make it all work, such as site layout, data structures etc: https://github.com/mysociety/popit/wiki/Feature-details Please send me any comments direct, or to this list if you think they would spark a discussion. Thank you for looking, Edmund. PS just to stress again that PopIt is still in alpha and not yet ready to be launched :) _______________________________________________ developers-public mailing list [email protected] https://secure.mysociety.org/admin/lists/mailman/listinfo/developers-public Unsubscribe: https://secure.mysociety.org/admin/lists/mailman/options/developers-public/archive%40mail-archive.com
