IGetDBWiki/RoadMap

IGetDB 1.0:

• Known bugs should be removed (i.e. bugs with priority normal in bugzilla)
• GenDB/SAMS data importers must work via cronjobs
• EMMA data importer should work properly, that is:
  • easy selection of projects
  • possibly own page with direct selection of significance tests
• BRF "look-and-feel"
• Timestamps

IGetDB 1.2:

• Change database schema from reverse star to snowflake including distance-tables for hierarchical data (e.g. sequence relations)
  • Better support for hierarchies (e.g. assembled 454 sequences)
  • Better support for external data (e.g. Gene-Ontology)
• Removal of dependencies to BioMart
• Create new tables for Mart configuration (opposed to the storage of an XML file as BLOB in the database). Possibly access via Hibernate
• Query-generation via FreeMarker templates
• Separation of core and web-interface packages
• Addition of pipeline system for analysis- and visualisation-tasks
• Use of the dependency injection pattern (at the very least) for the web-interface. Candidates are Spring and Guice.
• Addition of access control lists (ACL), possibly by Acegi (acegi.sf.net)
• Support of Pivot tables via Mondrian and JPivot
• Support of report generation
