[open-science-dev] New release of PyBossa ready to test

Tue Feb 14 13:43:06 UTC 2012

Dear all (for all the list),

great work on PyBossa. I would like to suggest one application that could
be further developed at saturday´s hackday. It is the "data-transcriber".
The project advanced slowly because of dificulties in handdling Bossa and
the "table solution" we were using. So migrating the development to PyBossa
would be great.

After migrating the taskmanagement to PyBossa, the important issue is to
decide which "table solution" to use. What are the options on the table?
One option is using a googleDocs spreadsheet; through the googleDocs API
3.0 (in pyThon) + googleSpreadsheet API which allows to control spreadsheet
creation, access and aperance. In the bossa version we have also been using
 a different solution with some java.script table aplication. Rufus, you
mentioned that there may be better options for the table solution, which
are them?

regrads
Lucas Mation

 improved a lot on what can be done, and 2) Nigini tryed a different
solution with some java.script table aplication and it did not work.
