Introduction
Welcome to the Frockle project wiki. Our intention is to have the main project web-site hosted [http://frockle.oucs.ox.ac.uk here]. Until we have that up and running, this site will probably act as a temporary location for information we intend to move to that location before too long.

Other content in the Frockle wiki
/PeerReview - peer-review exercise with meeting in Bolton on 25th April 2007.
/PeerReview2 - peer-review exercise (via tele-conference on 13th June 2007).
/ToDoList - List of stuff to do!
/ProjectBackground - where the name came from, etc.
Initial User Requirements
- Facility to create/edit/delete user profile in VLE (in user's personal area).
- Profile should include details of research interests, and publication list.
- Default is a simple profile, advanced profile with additional fields available.
- Ability to make profile public, or keep it private?
- Locate and view public profiles of known people, by searching/browsing using person's name.
- Locate people with similar or related research interests.
- Link to others to create personal networks. (Differentiate between two-way and one-way linking.)
- Require user to accept linking set up by a 'friend'?
- Navigate personal networks, preferably visually.
- Multi-level networks (e.g separate personal and work related networks).
- Add links to resources (in VLE) to personal networks.
- Share profile details with other systems or make same profile available in other systems (e.g. PDP).
- User's XML FOAF profile should be available for FOAF discovery applications.
Possible WebLearn implementation
Profile to be displayed/edited in user's personal MyWebLearn area. /EditProfileScreenshot
- Left hand frame in frameset modified to show profile snippet (and optional photo).
- Right hand frame provides interface to:
- create/edit profile
- display complete profile
- display visual FOAF network
Clicking on a person node in the network takes you to their MyWebLearn area (displays profile snippet on left).
- People's research interests are represented as a different node type in the visual display?
- Clicking on research interest node displays users with that interest (i.e not friend network.)
- Modified version of current search facility used to provide search interface for users personal spaces.
Technical Requirements
- Code should be usable in multiple systems (e.g. Bodington and Sakai).
- Data shouldn't be in existing VLE database.
- Code should support using Postgres database.
- Increasing load on VLE server should be limited as much as possible.
- Application should be reliable, usable with different browsers with varying configurations.
Ideally fit in with existing functionality in VLE, e.g. MyWebLearn personal spaces, keyword tagging and searching.
