At the moment, this is a Java web start project based on the eclipse SWT UI framework. Under the covers is a local derby database which takes as an input, the CSV generated from MLS to seed the member/leader info. It needs its functionality to be complete, and email capability before it will be usable. Also I thought to design the db schema in such a way that the data could be hosted on a web server somewhere... so people could login and add agenda items or update their action items online. Then the Exec Sec can replicate the data before leadership meetings (if there is no internet connection at the church building) and have the most up to date info. If internet is available, just use the online version (vapourware).
The partially working version is available from my website:
http://webbudget.homeip.net/mysite
but as mentioned above, its only partially working. Need time/help. Interested parties please email me.
I was an exec secretary for a year or so... this type of application would have been VERY useful and could have saved many hours. Possible integration with other reports, such as Bishop's Action List, and other reports (potential missionaries, etc...) would aggregate lots of this (currently disperate) information into a meeting agenda where it can be properly addressed.
