  • replaced DB schema in .sql by a pg dump that also includes sample data
  • added faculty entry to the app

2To install this software, load the database from the dump:
3
4$ pg_restore waeup-dump.dump

6If you get errors, you may need some prerequisites, like eg PL-SQL.
7
8After that, get a Zope instance, preferably 2.8.2 (I only tested with that),
9and import the .zexp file.
10
11To use the software, point your browser to the folder created by the import
12(named "demo").

14Please note that this is less than alpha quality software.

16Currently, the following things should work:
17
18- A student ID can be checked against a pre-loaded list of student IDs.
19
20- A student can get a bed.
21
22- A student can enter a faculty. This requires that he has sufficient good
23  results in his examinations, and also the right set of subjects which
24  are required on a per-course-of-study basis.
25
26During all this, scratchcard PINs are consumed, which means, that these
27will be emtpy at some point.
28
29What doesn't work:
30
31- There is way to upload all the photocopied stuff.
32- Workflow in general is poor to non-existant, as well as
33- security.
34
35The absense of security means that there is no protection against misuse.
36
37This could be retrofitted somewhat, along with the much desirable
38re-architecturing, or at least restructuring, of the application.

41Suggestions and support on how to improve this software is very welcome, as
42well as useful patches, although I can promise you nothing at this point.
