Hi,
I'd like to register as a developer for CPAN.
Name: George A. Fitch III (aka Gaffer)
Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Homepage: www.gaf3.com
UserID: GAFFER
Description: I plan to contribute modules relating to databases,
web designs, and graphics. Mostly just trying to make the
developer's life easier by minimizing the amount
of code and development time neeed to produce applications
relating to database reporting and graphing via the web.
Modules: Relations - adph (available at www.gaf3.com)
DBI/DBD::mysql functions to ease development
Relations::Query - cdpO
DBI/DBD::mysql object for creating queries
Relations::Family - idpO
Relational query engine that uses Query
Relations::Select - idpO
CGI object for using Family via the web
Relations::Display - idpO
GDGraph object for web reporting from Select
Related: Relations.Form - cd_O (PHP/JavaScript)
Links relational db tables to html forms
Relations.Field - cd_O (PHP/JavaScript)
Links relational db fields to html fields
Interest: All these objects currently exist in an unreleasable form
within a production enviroment. They were developed at a
company I currently work for, but cannot be released as
is. My company simply doesn't want to pay me to do other
people's work. However, they are perfectly happy with me
developing the next versions (from scratch) of these modules
on my own time to be released as open source. So I already
know these objects are both feasible and useable.
The web-database reporting system that uses these modules was developed
entirely with open source software, and has saved us a great deal of time
and money. I feel these modules are the least I can do to give something
back to open source community.
Thank you for your time,
Gaf
