Susan (Mabry) Alexander is a Professor of Computer Science at Walla Walla University (WWU) in College Place, Washington. Previously, she taught at Whitworth University for a number of years. Prior to that, she was a technology manager with Northrop Grumman Corporation and a Northrop Fellow. She has been the principal investigator for various research projects including with the National Science Foundation. Dr. Alexander's research interests include intelligent medical decision support systems, modeling and simulation, and agent-oriented processing. She teaches a variety of classes: programming classes, operating systems, artificial intelligence, ethics, technology management, database management and survey of computing.
She has a number of pleasure interests: camping, kayaking, art, exploring the outdoors and gardening with her husband, enjoying our grandkids, and playing with our "doodles" - "Kylee" an Australian Labradoodle, and "Bilbo" a Goldendoodle!
Intro to IRC Exercise
- How do people interact? Darci called the meeting. MeetingBot is Totally. Interactions of questions and responses of those participating. - What is the pattern of communication? The pattern is mixed, mostly linear with some branches within the topic - The tone is informal - Discussions are mixed with 1 - many, and 1 - 1 varying with topics. - The special terms appear to be meetbot commands to be captured in the results of meetbot and meeting notes (i.e. #info, #action, #topic)

Intro to FOSS Project Anatomy Activity
The Sahana Eden may be of high interest for us and I plan to investigate further. The methods align with my interests and the tools seem a good fit for our students.
Sugar Labs Project: Education tool in which children can research, write, share and create together. “Discoverable learning” in a framework. They journal and everything is saved, runs on any platform, connected to the Internet or not. Multiple languages.
Contributions. As a starting point in class(es), I first hope to integrate FOSS tasks, I imagine maintenance and testing as most applicable for students. Commonalities revolve around the common focus on education and experiential learning. Differences lie in the tasks performed.
Tracker. The general process for submitting bugs is under the issues tab of the Project Github repository. Most types/categories are defects of normal priority. Other information includes a ticket number, a brief statement summary, type, priority, Occasionally includes owner, and milestone.
Last commit date on Github = October 10, 2016 Release cycle and roadmap update are related through mapping the various release events: development, beta, release candidate and final releases. The roadmap updates include more detailed schedules to meet the release events.
Sahana Eden Project:
The platform aims to provide critical needs management prior to, or during, a crisis. It can be customized to adapt to existing processes and to integrate with existing systems. The system is to provide resource mgt, info mgt, coordination, environmental management, decision support and stakeholder communications. Development involves Python and the Web2Py framework.
Possible contributions: Developers – Blueprints are provided for targeted functionalities. Numerous functionalities are enumerated. Testers – Extensive testing and bug reporting opportunities for contribution. Designers – Available tasks for graphic designers, ideas for project tasks and design
Organized by titles of tickets with category links to more detailed information (i.e. Active Tickets, Major bugs in Production and UAT, Recently Fixed FRP Bugs, etc). Under the Active Tickets link, Ticket number, Summary of the ticket task and/or bug, Component, Version, Priority, Type, Owner, Status, and date recorded.
Last commit date in the repository was 14 hours ago (March 14, 2017).
Summarize release cycle information. Includes status of tasks for milestones. A gantt chart reflects percentage of targeted tasks completed. Most recent Milestone 2.0 is 98 % completed. 1 active task remains. There is also an itemization of framework features and estimated hours.
