The project stalled as I waited for more responses from the news release of the MRM site and this blog. In addition, an influential member of a national society promised to solicit support from his organization, but failed to follow through for whatever reason.
However, coding for a demonstration site has proceeded along as time permits. There were three modules that needed to be initially developed: Add a member, search for a member, and edit a member record. These are now working on a private server although the aesthetics are miserable as I am concentrating on functionality (logical flow) and use of contemporary aids such as a Google like auto suggest for member lookup, and simplified data entry with user friendly prompts when errors are made.
In addition to coding, a large set of sample member records has been developed to features as they are added. It will soon be time to setup an on-line test site with selected and vetted volunteer users. (send a private message if you are interested).
Look soon for a posting here on how to become a tester. And view my attempt to map out the project using a thought mapping program called MindNode.
