<h1>Pre-Troggle Assumptions</h1>
|
|
<h3><em>Assumptions</em> and starting points</h3>
|
|
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>Let's <var>not</var> try to design a generic catalogue for storing all kind of data about caves of the whole world, intended for every kind of user (sports, exploration, science).
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Let's just settle for a generic framework.
|
|
<li>Let geeks in individual countries or individual communities write their tools operating within this framework.
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<li>Let's try make it available for the layman, but still well-playable for the geeks.
|
|
<li>Let's rely on already existing, popular technologies.
|
|
<li>Let's keep it open source and multiplatform.
|
|
<li>Let's try not to reinvent the wheel.
|
|
<li>Let's not assume everyone has an Internet connection while working with their data.
|
|
<li>Let's version-control as much as possible.
|
|
<li>Let's support i18n - let's use UTF-8 everywhere and cater for data in many languages(entrance names, cave descriptions, location descriptions etc.)
|
|
</ol>
|
|
<p>These are taken from a two page preliminary design document for <a href="../../documents/caca_arch2.pdf">'caca' (Cave Catalogue) rev.2 2013-07-26</a> by Wookey (copied from http://wookware.org/software/cavearchive/caca_arch2.pdf)
|
|
<p>Troggle diverges markedly from these ideals in both design and in actual use.
