Sean DonCarlos | Ryan Learned | Accomplished to Date


Introduction
The EquipRD! project can be roughly divided into two development paths: the prototype ColdFusion/SQL Server path and the production PHP/MySQL path. In general, tasks in the ColdFusion/SQL Server path must be completed before the corresponding tasks in the PHP/MySQL paths are started. This is due to Sean's greater familiarity with ColdFusion MX and SQL Server compared to PHP and MySQL.

Sean DonCarlos will be leading the ColdFusion/SQL path and Ryan Learned will be leading the PHP/MySQL path. The work of porting the EquipRD! software will be shared between the two paths, with Sean describing the ColdFusion and SQL code used to create a particular EquipRD! functionality and Ryan determining what PHP and MySQL code will recreate that functionality in the production version.
