MNN and Openflows are beginning the work on the scheduling module. It is a fairly large undertaking. I'd also love to get the rest of the community involved with this project, and this is as good a place to start as any.
The scheduling module encompasses both program scheduling as well as playback issues. I think it's critical to get input at this stage because everyone's requirements will be different. It's important that we put enough thought and flexibility into the system to accommodate the majority of needs.
That being said, here's what we need:
-
resources to project manage the module. At MNN, I'm pretty swamped and would like to see if others have some resources that could be committed to the module.
-
development resources - While OF will be doing the core coding, there are parts that could be specific to a PEG center that could be offloaded to someone else.
Please let me know via posting to this group or at lego@mnn.org

The work by Joe Golden at
The work by Joe Golden at CCTV for the pegevent module is all about scheduling and is in working order (though custom integration will have to be done at other stations). http://drupal.org/project/pegevent
thanks for pointing that out, emily
we plan on starting from the pegevent module in our efforts to complete the requirements for MNN's programming and playback modules. As soon as we're done getting final spec together we will be in touch with Joe to coordinate our efforts.
