This provides a way for users to evaluate the system before doing any configuration themselves. Also useful for testing and demonstrations. Communications & Marketing | Spreading the word about The Periwinkle Project - both for end users and those interested in joining the project. Project Sustainability | Planning for the future of The Periwinkle Project Project Tools | Technologies used to develop, build, test, and deploy the periwinkle system Released Version Support | Fixing Bugs, answering forum questions, minor incremental updates The Core Frameworks are organized into different components: Component | Description ----------|------------ Reusable Components | Templates, abstract classes, APIs, and other things that make module development easier Orb & Managers | Facilities to interact with the database and the persistence layer Search | The framework to find entities in the database Resource Bundles | The framework for translatable strings Reporting | Framework for developing and executing reports within the system Notifications & Messaging | Facilities for notifying other users when something of interest changes Security | authentication, authorizations, and other aspects of keeping data safe and secure Currently, there are two modules under active development: Module Name | Description ------------|------------ IFS | The Integrated Financial System: a personal finance module for those who want to keep track of their coins in a detailed fashion. GTD | Getting Things Done: a system to use with the popular methodology for task management.
